Loaded Oreo Cheesecake
This rich and creamy cheesecake is packed with cookies in every bite and topped with a smooth chocolate ganache.
dailyrecipesbook.comIf you love Oreos as much as I do, this cheesecake is going to be your new favorite dessert. It is the perfect combination of a buttery cookie crust, a velvety smooth cheesecake filling, and an extra layer of chocolatey goodness.
I love making this for parties because it always looks professional, yet it is surprisingly simple to put together. You do not need any complicated water baths for this one, which makes the whole process stress free and fun.

- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the ganache, heat the heavy cream until hot and pour it over the chocolate chips. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth and drizzle over the chilled cake.

To get perfectly clean slices, run your knife under hot water and wipe it dry between every cut. Keep your leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap to freeze it for up to a month.
