Ingredients

Cheesecake Filling

  • Cream cheese (softened) – 16 oz (450g)
  • Whipped cream – 1 cup (240ml), gently whipped
  • Sugar – 3/4 cup (150g)
  • Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon
  • Oreos or chocolate sandwich cookies (for chunks) – 1 1/2 cups, roughly chopped

Crust

  • Crushed cookie crumbs – 1 1/2 cups (about 15-20 cookies, crushed)
  • Butter (melted) – 6 tablespoons (85g)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cookie Crust: Start by crushing your cookies finely and mixing them with melted butter. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of your serving pan or pie dish to create a sturdy yet tender crust foundation.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, whip together softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Next, fold in gently whipped cream and vanilla extract, making sure to maintain a light and airy consistency.
  3. Incorporate Cookie Chunks: Roughly chop additional cookies and fold them into your cheesecake filling for that signature crunch and fun “Cookie Monster” appeal in every bite.
  4. Assemble and Chill: Pour the creamy cookie-studded filling over the prepared crust, spreading evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm enough to slice.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, garnish as desired with crushed cookie crumbs, mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, or fresh fruit, then serve chilled for the ultimate creamy, crunchy dessert experience.

Notes

  • Choose room temperature cream cheese for smooth blending and to prevent lumps.
  • Don’t overmix; fold ingredients gently to keep the cheesecake light and fluffy.
  • Use fresh cookies for the best cookie texture and crunch.
  • Chill thoroughly for at least 4 hours to achieve the perfect set texture.
  • Adjust sugar to taste before chilling if you prefer a sweeter cheesecake.
