Ingredients
- Oreo cookies with filling, 1 1/2 cups crushed
- Unsalted butter, melted, 6 tablespoons
- Cream cheese, softened, 32 ounces
- Granulated sugar, 1 cup
- Eggs, large, 3
- Vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon
- Heavy cream, 1/2 cup
- Twix candy bars, chopped, 6 fun-size bars
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). In a medium bowl, combine crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create the crust.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract and heavy cream.
- Step 3: Gently fold in half of the chopped Twix candy bars into the cream cheese mixture.
- Step 4: Pour the cream cheese mixture over the Oreo crust in the springform pan.
- Step 5: Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the center is just slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour with the door slightly ajar.
- Step 6: Remove from oven and let cool completely at room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. Before serving, top with remaining chopped Twix candy bars.
Notes
- Store leftover Twix cheesecake tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- There is no reheating necessary, serve straight from the fridge.
- Garnish each slice with a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra touch of sweetness.
- For a smoother cheesecake, ensure your cream cheese is fully softened and beat the mixture until completely lump-free before adding eggs.
