Method
- Preheat the oven and prepare a springform pan.
- Mix crushed cookies and melted butter, then press into the pan.
- Bake the crust briefly until set and allow it to cool.
- Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Add eggs and vanilla, mixing just until combined and silky.
- Fold chopped cookies into the batter and pour over the crust.
- Bake until slightly set in the center, cool completely, and chill before slicing.
Notes
For a softer crust, bake slightly less. For a crispier base, bake a few minutes longer. Freeze the cheesecake whole or in slices for up to two months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving. Use a warm knife for clean cuts. Customize flavors with peanut butter, caramel, mint, or chocolate drizzle. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to five days.
