Strawberry Cheesecake Oreo Bars

The crust and topping are made of golden Oreos. The vanilla cookie-flavored baked cheesecake is creamy.

Crust first: Crumble the Oreos. Mix with melted butter in a small bowl. Step 2: Line an 8x8 pan with parchment. Press the crumbs into the pan for a strong base.

Step 3: Bake crust for 10 minutes. While making the cheesecake, let it cool on the counter. Step 4: Cheesecake: Beat cream cheese in a mixer. Beat white sugar in. Fluff it.

Step 5—Add sour cream, heavy cream, and vanilla. Beat on medium speed, scraping the bowl. Smooth combination.

Step 6: Pour cheesecake over crust. Bake 45-50 minutes. The edging is golden brown. Before refrigerating, chill the cheesecake fully on the counter.

Step 7—Make strawberry sauce: Combine strawberries, lemon juice, water, sugar, and cornstarch in a saucepan over medium heat. Blend well. Stir after simmering for 8-10 minutes.

Strawberries shrink and release juice. Mixture will thicken. That indicates readiness. Keep heat under 10 minutes. Pour sauce over cheesecake after letting it cool.
