How to Make Green Velvet Oreo Cheesecake

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix the crushed Oreo cookies with melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to create an even layer. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
  3. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and green food coloring until evenly mixed. Finally, fold in the sour cream until well combined.
  4. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the green velvet cheesecake filling over the cooled Oreo crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are lightly golden. The center may still have a slight jiggle.
  6. Cool and Chill: Turn off the oven and crack the door open, allowing the cheesecake to cool gradually for about an hour. Then, transfer it to the refrigerator and chill for at least 3 hours (or overnight) until fully set.
  7. Serve: Once chilled, carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Decorate the top with crushed Oreos or additional toppings as desired. Slice and enjoy your stunning Green Velvet Oreo Cheesecake!

Tips

  • Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature for easy mixing and a smooth filling.
  • Don’t Overmix: Mix just until combined to avoid incorporating too much air, which can cause cracks.

Substitutions and Variations

  • Different Crusts: Substitute the Oreo crust with a graham cracker crust for a different flavor.
  • Add Flavor: Experiment by adding a teaspoon of mint extract or chocolate chips to the filling for a unique twist.

Make a Healthier Version

  • Use reduced-fat cream cheese and Greek yogurt in place of sour cream for a lighter cheesecake.
  • Reduce the sugar or substitute with a natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup.
