How to Make Oreo Cheesecake?

How to make Oreo cheesecake? Are we surprised that this is a popular question?  All types of cheesecake recipes are favorite desserts all over the world. These recipes can be made with cream cheese, ricotta cheese, cottage cheese and sometimes a few other types. It does not matter what type of cheese used this dessert is always delicious.


When learning how to make Oreo cheesecake, these cookies that you use are made by Nabisco. It is one of the top selling cookies (If not the top) in the United States. Combine this favorite cookie with the world’s favorite dessert and the mouth can’t stop drooling. I am not one to buy prepared foods especially cookies. I always make cookies homemade from scratch; that is except Oreos when I need them for recipes. The problem is that quite often they do not last long enough to get my recipes made. I am ashamed to tell you just how fast those big boxes of cookies from Sam’s can disappear around here.

You are all probably familiar with this sandwich cookie. Two chocolate cookies are filled with a delicious vanilla cream.  What was even better is when the company came out with the “double stuff” cookies. At Christmas time I even tried these cookies stuffed with a peppermint filling; they are good also.  If you are learning how to make Oreo cheesecake, you might like to try these peppermint ones in a recipe. I buy cookies only when I use them in another recipe so for this I prefer the original Oreo cookies with the normal vanilla stuffing.
