• 3/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Whipped cream (for garnish, optional)

In a bowl, stir the melted butter into the Oreo crumbs with a fork until all crumbs are moistened. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and halfway up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the room temperature cream cheese with a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth. Mix in the powdered sugar until the mixture is creamy and smooth. Add the vanilla extract. Gradually pour in the heavy whipping cream while mixing. Continue mixing until stiff peaks form.

3. Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.

4. Just before serving, top with whipped cream if desired. Slice and enjoy your delicious no bake cheesecake!
