Ingredients:
- 150 g (about 1 ½ cups) Oreo crumbs
- 30 g (2 tablespoons) melted butter
- 680 g (24 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 200 g (1 cup) sugar
- 5 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 30 g (1/4 cup) all-purpose flour
- 230 g (1 cup) sour cream
- 15 Oreos, coarsely crushed, for topping
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 320°F (160°C) and lightly butter a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan.
- In a mixing bowl, combine Oreo crumbs with melted butter. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom and about 1 ½ inches (4 cm) up the sides of the prepared pan.
- Beat the cream cheese on low speed until light and fluffy. Gradually add the sugar, mixing until well combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating just until incorporated for each. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the vanilla extract, salt, and flour, mixing until smooth. Finally, add the sour cream and mix until just combined—again, avoid overmixing. Gently fold in less than half of the crushed Oreos.
- Pour the cheesecake batter into the springform pan and sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos on top.
- Bake on the upper rack of the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the center jiggles slightly. If it jiggles excessively, bake for an additional 15 minutes.
- Turn off the oven and leave the door slightly ajar. Allow the cheesecake to sit in the oven for another hour before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, cover the cheesecake and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.
- When ready to serve, cut into slices and consider garnishing with whipped cream or melted chocolate for an extra touch.
