Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup chopped chocolate sandwich cookies (additional for filling)
- Extra cookie chunks for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even crust.
- Make the Filling: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated, and then fold in the chopped chocolate sandwich cookies.
- Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula, and sprinkle extra cookie chunks on top for decoration.
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until it’s set. For best results, refrigerate overnight.
- Serve: Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and enjoy!
