Where is the love for desserts?

Cheesecake and 3 Rows of Oreos.

Preheat oven to 350.

Start with three 8-oz packages of cream cheese, a cup of sugar, 1.5 tsp vanilla, and 4 eggs.


Hit them with the mixer until smooth.

Take one row of Oreos and process them with the blade.
Take one row of Oreos, put them into a ziploc bag, and break them up with a rolling pin (or whatever).



Press the processed Oreos into the bottom of a springform pan.



Once the cream cheese mixture is smooth, add a pint of sour cream, and continue mixing. Once THAT is incorporated, add a cup of whipping cream, and mix again, until that is also incorporated.


Fold in the Oreos you broke up in the bag.


Carefully pour that mixture into the springform.


Bake at 350 for 45 minutes. The center should firm up. Once the 45 minutes is up, turn off the oven and open the door for a minute or so, then close the door and leave it in the oven for about 10-15 minutes. Set out to cool, having run a knife around the outside edge. Since this is the minor leagues, my cake cracked. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]


I figure on 12 slices...make a slit with a paring knife and insert an Oreo into the appropriate spot. You should have 3 Oreos left to consume afterward. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]


Enjoy!

sackup,

skin side up first is standard

mebenhoe,

Ever tried eating the skin? Sear both sides on high heat until the skin gets crispy and slightly golden-brown. It's pretty good.
