6. Chill: Cover and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to set.
7. Serve: Once set, slice and serve the cheesecake. Enjoy the creamy, cookie-filled delight!

Notes

• Make sure to break the Oreos into large chunks to enjoy the texture in every bite.
• For a firmer crust, you can bake the crust at 350°F for 10 minutes before adding the filling.
• Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
