Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Servings 16

Ingredients

  • 23 each Oreos regular or double stuff
  • 2 Tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 2 8 ounce packages cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 ounce Baker's semi sweet baking chocolate

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Prepare an 8x8 baking pan with non-stick spray. You may line the pan with foil or parchment paper for easier removal; spray the liner with non-stick spray.

  2. Start by melting the chocolate in a microwave safe dish. Cook for 30 seconds, stir the chocolate and cook for another 10 seconds if needed. Set aside to cool.

  3. Using a food processor, crush up the oreos until they are in fine pieces. Add in the melted butter and process again until all of the oreos are coated. Press the cookie crumbs into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside.

  4. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Add in the sour cream and mix again. Add eggs, one at time and mixing well after each egg.

  5. Scoop 1 cup of batter to reserve for later. If the chocolate is completely cooled, mix it into the remaining batter. Pour the chocolate batter over the cookie crust. Then spoon dollups of the reserved batter all over the top and swirl the two batters with a knife.

  6. Bake for 40 minutes, until the edges are a light golden brown and the middle is almost set. Cool and refrigerate for a few hours before cutting.

  7. When you are ready to cut the bars, slice the cheesecake into 16 bars and then drizzle with the chocolate sauce. To make chocolate shavings use a vegetable peeler and shave the sides of the candy bar all over the top of your cheesecake. Enjoy!
