Baked Oreo Cheesecake



It was my youngest brother’s birthday weeks ago and I decided to bake an Oreo cheesecake for him. I know that there are lots of Oreo cheesecake recipes which do not require baking. However, I wanted to try a baked cheesecake and thus went searching for a recipe for that.

Makes a 9″ cheesecake

Ingredient list:

  • 24 Oreo cookies (2 packets will be sufficient)

Comments: 

I reduced the amount of cream cheese from 750g to 500g and from three eggs to two eggs as I did not want a thick cheesecake. However, seeing my relatively thin cheesecake after it was baked, I realised that the original amount of cheesecake might not have been too much. Would stick to the original recipe amount the next time. Otherwise, this is a simple, yet delicious bake! Everyone can try it and succeed for the first time!
