Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups Oreo cookie crumbs (for the spectacular Oreo crust)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 24 oz cream cheese, softened (essential for the rich, creamy cheesecake)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup toffee bits (for that decadent toffee infusion)
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon butterbeer extract (to bring the magical flavor)
- Optional: whipped cream and extra toffee bits for topping
Instructions
- Begin by crushing the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Mix the Oreo crumbs with melted butter until evenly coated. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9×13-inch baking pan to create a sturdy base. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8 minutes, then allow to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Mix in vanilla extract, butterbeer extract, and sour cream until silky. Fold in toffee bits, then pour over the cooled crust, spreading evenly.
- Bake at 325°F (160°C) for about 45-50 minutes until the center is just set but slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and leave it for another 30 minutes. Remove and cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set. Top with whipped cream and toffee bits if desired before serving.
Notes
- Ensure ingredients are at room temperature for a smooth batter.
- Do not overmix to keep the cheesecake creamy and light.
- Refrigerate thoroughly to achieve the best texture and flavor.
- You can omit toffee bits or replace them with caramel sauce for different variations.
