Ingredients

Scale

For the Oreo Crust:

  • 24 Oreo cookies, crushed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Cheesecake Filling:

  • 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, melted

For the Topping:

  • Whipped cream (optional)
  • Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oreo Crust: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). In a mixing bowl, combine crushed Oreo cookies with melted butter until well mixed. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan creating an even layer. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and allow to cool.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract and mix to combine. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in sour cream and heavy cream until fully combined.
  3. Divide and Flavor the Filling: Split the cheesecake batter evenly into three separate bowls. Fold melted semi-sweet chocolate chips into one bowl, melted white chocolate chips into another, and melted dark chocolate chips into the last bowl, mixing gently to combine each flavor.
  4. Layer the Cheesecake: Pour the semi-sweet chocolate mixture over the cooled Oreo crust and spread evenly. Next, layer the white chocolate mixture on top gently, followed by the dark chocolate mixture, taking care to avoid mixing the layers.
  5. Bake the Cheesecake: Place the springform pan in the preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes or until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly. Turn off the oven and open the door slightly, letting the cheesecake cool slowly inside for about an hour.
  6. Chill and Serve: Once cooled to room temperature, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight to set completely. Before serving, optionally top with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder for an elegant finish.

Notes

  • Use a springform pan to easily remove the cheesecake without damage.
  • Melting the chocolate chips separately ensures each layer has a distinct flavor and smooth texture.
  • Allow the cheesecake to cool slowly in the oven to prevent cracking.
  • Refrigerate overnight for best flavor and texture.
  • For cleaner layer lines, cool each chocolate mixture slightly before pouring over the previous layer.
