Description
A rich and creamy Red Velvet Oreo Cheesecake that combines the flavors of red velvet cake and Oreo cookies, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 24 Oreo cookies (plus extra for decoration)
- 5 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
- 16 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream (chilled)
- 1 cup red velvet cake crumbs
- 1/4 cup raspberry or strawberry compote (for topping)
- Whipped cream (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
- Crush the Oreos into fine crumbs and mix them with the melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to create the crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then set aside to cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Mix in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually fold in the heavy whipping cream until the filling is light and creamy. For a firmer set, dissolve 1 tsp of gelatin in 2 tbsp water and fold it into the filling.
- Gently mix in the red velvet cake crumbs until evenly distributed.
- Pour the filling over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to set.
- Once set, spread the berry compote on top of the cheesecake. Decorate with whipped cream and extra Oreo cookies.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
Notes
- For best results, use room temperature cream cheese to avoid lumps.
- Make sure the heavy whipping cream is chilled for better whipping.
- Feel free to use any berry compote of your choice for topping.
