Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup semisweet mini chocolate chips
  • 8 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • Pinch of salt

  • 3 eggs
  • 15 regular Oreo cookies (chopped)
  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream
  • Pinch of salt
  • Chocolate chip cookies (for garnish)
  • Blue candy melts (for drizzle)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray an 8-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine melted butter, salt, and light brown sugar. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted and let cool for 10-15 minutes.
  3. Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  4. Stir in half of the flour, then fold in the remaining flour and mini chocolate chips.
  5. Press the dough into the prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  6. Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  7. Beat together cream cheese, cornstarch, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
  8. Add a pinch of salt, whipping cream, vanilla extract, and a few drops of blue food coloring, mixing until smooth.
  9. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  10. Fold in the chopped Oreo cookies.
  11. Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled cookie crust.
  12. Wrap the pan in heavy-duty foil to prevent water from seeping in, then place it in a larger pan with hot water.
  13. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes until the center jiggles slightly.
  14. Turn off the heat, crack the oven door, and let it cool for 30 minutes.
  15. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and water bath, then cool to room temperature (4-5 hours) and chill overnight.
  16. Microwave chocolate chips, whipped cream, and a pinch of salt, stirring until spreadable.
  17. Spread the ganache over the chilled cheesecake, pipe swirls on top, and drizzle with melted blue candy melts.
  18. Top with chocolate chip cookies. Store in the fridge until ready to serve.

Notes

For best texture, ensure cream cheese is at room temperature and do not skip the water bath when baking.
