Ingredients

24 whole Oreo cookies

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

24 oz cream cheese, softened

3/4 cup powdered sugar

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold

8 oz semi-sweet chocolate, melted and cooled

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 pinch salt

Optional toppings: Chocolate ganache, whipped cream, chocolate shavings

Instructions

1. Pulse the Oreo cookies in a food processor until finely crushed. Add melted butter and pulse until evenly combined. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Freeze for 20 minutes.

2. In a bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.

3. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt. Mix well. Add melted chocolate and mix until fully incorporated.

4. Fold the whipped cream gently into the chocolate cream cheese mixture until smooth.

5. Pour the filling into the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.

6. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.

7. Before serving, top with ganache, whipped cream, or chocolate shavings as desired.

Notes

For best results, use full-fat cream cheese and whip the cream until stiff peaks.

Allow at least 6 hours to chill, or make it the day before for easy serving.

Swap Oreos with chocolate graham crackers for a crust variation.
