You Must Know

The Oreos are truly the star ingredient here. I've tried making this with generic sandwich cookies and while still delicious it lacks that distinctive flavor that only real Oreos provide. My husband jokingly calls this "The Diet Destroyer" but always asks for seconds anyway.

Frequently Asked Questions

→ How do I prevent the cheesecake from cracking?: To prevent cracks, mix the batter on low speed to avoid adding too much air, bake in a water bath, and cool the cheesecake slowly in the oven with the door cracked.
→ Can I use store-bought chocolate cake instead of baking from scratch?: Yes, you can save time by using a store-bought chocolate cake as the base for this dessert. Ensure it fits your springform pan.
→ How do I ensure the mousse sets properly?: Chill the mousse layer for 2-3 hours in the refrigerator until firm before adding the final decorations. This ensures stability.
→ Can I make this dessert ahead of time?: Absolutely! The cheesecake can be made a day in advance. Cover it well and refrigerate until serving.
→ How should I store leftovers?: Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consumed within 4-5 days for the best flavor.

Instructions

Step 01

Preheat oven to 176°C (350°F). Line a 23cm (9-inch) springform pan with parchment paper and grease the sides. Whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and egg white. Mix wet and dry ingredients until well combined, then add water and mix until smooth. Pour batter into the springform pan and bake for 12-15 minutes. Cool completely and wash the pan for reuse.

Step 02

Melt chocolate chips by pouring boiled heavy cream over them; whisk after 3-4 minutes. Set aside. Beat room-temperature cream cheese, sugar, and flour on low speed. Mix in sour cream, vanilla extract, and eggs one at a time. Line the springform pan with parchment paper, grease well, and prepare for a water bath. Reset the pan around the cooled cake, spread melted chocolate atop, and layer Oreo cheesecake filling with whole Oreos in between. Top with remaining Oreos before filling the outer pan with warm water. Bake at 148°C (300°F) for 45 minutes. Allow gradual cooling for 50 minutes in the oven, then refrigerate overnight.

Step 03

Melt white chocolate with 30ml (2 tbsp) of cream in a microwave, stirring until smooth. Cool to room temperature. Whip remaining cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff. Fold one-third of whipped cream into cooled chocolate; then mix in the rest. Add chopped Oreos and spread the mousse atop the cheesecake. Chill for 2-3 hours until firm.

Step 04

Beat butter until smooth, then mix in melted chocolate. Gradually add powdered sugar, salt, and cream until the frosting reaches desired consistency. Frost the edges of the cheesecake and press mini chocolate chips and crushed Oreos onto the sides. Use remaining frosting to pipe designs on top and garnish with Oreos and remaining chocolate chips. Refrigerate until ready to serve, allowing 45 minutes to soften before slicing.

Notes

Refrigerating overnight ensures the cheesecake holds its structure. For best slicing results, allow the cake to sit at room temperature for 45 minutes before serving.
