Ingredients

• 300 grams Chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreo)
• 75 grams Unsalted butter, melted
• 680 grams Cream cheese, softened
• 200 grams Granulated sugar
• 120 ml Sour cream
• 120 ml Heavy cream
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 3 large Eggs, room temperature
• 225 grams Semisweet chocolate, melted
• 150 grams Dark chocolate, chopped
• 150 ml Heavy cream (for ganache)
• 50 grams White chocolate, melted (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it and lining the bottom with parchment paper.

Step 2

Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter until evenly combined.

Step 3

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Bake the crust in the oven for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy using a hand or stand mixer.

Step 5

Add the sour cream, heavy cream, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and beat until well combined.

Step 6

One at a time, add the eggs to the mixture, beating on low speed until just incorporated after each addition.

Step 7

Slowly fold the melted semisweet chocolate into the cheesecake batter until evenly colored and smooth.

Step 8

Pour the batter over the cooled cookie crust in the springform pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Wrap the outside of the pan in aluminum foil to prevent leaks, then place it into a larger roasting pan. Pour hot water into the roasting pan to create a water bath that comes halfway up the sides of the springform pan.

Step 10

Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 55–65 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly.

Step 11

Turn off the oven, crack the oven door slightly, and allow the cheesecake to cool inside the oven for 1 hour to prevent cracking.

Step 12

Remove the cheesecake from the water bath, remove the foil, and transfer to a cooling rack. Allow it to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Step 13

To make the ganache topping, heat the heavy cream (150 ml) in a small saucepan over medium heat until just simmering. Pour the hot cream over the chopped dark chocolate and let it sit for 2–3 minutes. Stir until smooth and glossy.

Step 14

Spread the ganache evenly over the chilled cheesecake. If desired, drizzle melted white chocolate in a decorative pattern over the top.

Step 15

Chill the cheesecake again until the ganache is set, about 30 minutes. Slice and serve!
