🍫🍮 Oreo Caramel Swirl Cheesecake Delight 🍰✨
A rich, creamy cheesecake swirled with chocolate and caramel, topped with whipped cream, Oreos, and more caramel drizzle! 😍
Ingredients:
* 24 Oreo cookies (crushed for crust)
* 5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
* 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 1 cup sour cream
* 3 large eggs
* 2 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
* 1/2 cup caramel sauce (plus extra for topping)
* 1/2 cup chocolate sauce or ganache (plus extra for swirling)
* Whipped cream (for topping)
* 6 Oreo cookies (whole, for garnish)
* Chocolate cookie crumbs (optional topping)
Instructions:
1. **Preheat oven** to 325°F (160°C). Line the bottom of a springform pan with parchment paper.
2. **Make the crust**: Mix crushed Oreos with melted butter, press into the bottom of the pan, and bake for 10 minutes. Let cool.
3. **Prepare the cheesecake filling**: Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add sour cream, eggs, vanilla, and flour; mix until combined.
4. **Pour filling** into the crust. Drop spoonfuls of caramel and chocolate sauce on top and swirl gently with a knife.
5. **Bake** for about 55–65 minutes, or until the center is almost set. Turn off oven, crack the door, and let cool for 1 hour.
6. **Chill** in the fridge for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight).
7. **Decorate** with whipped cream, whole Oreos, caramel drizzle, and chocolate cookie crumbs before serving.
Pro Tip:
For a cleaner swirl, use room temperature caramel and chocolate sauce so they blend effortlessly into the cheesecake before baking!
