You’ll need:
8-inch springform pan
Red Velvet Cake Mix
Red Velvet Oreo Cheesecake
Ingredients
Cake
- 1 box of Red Velvet cake mix
Crust:
- 50 Oreo cookies
- 6 Tablespoons melted butter
Cheesecake:
- 24 ounces soft cream cheese
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3 eggs
Frosting:
- 1-16 oz. container of cream cheese frosting..softened in the microwave
Instructions
- Grease 8 inch springform pan and line with parchment. Preheat oven 350.
- Crush oreos in food processor. Add butter and press in pan. (if crumbs don't press together add drop more butter.) Next time I will try halving the crust amounts for a thinner crust .
- Prepare cake mix and pour ¾ of it over crust. Bake 20 minutes and remove. While it is baking prepare cheesecake by beating ingredients.
- Pour into center of cake and it will sink right down. I did NOT use all of the cheesecake batter. Save some for mini cheesecakes or it may overflow. Return to the oven on a cookie sheet (in case of overflow-mine did not overflow but better safe!)
- Bake 40-50 minutes until cheesecake baked. Toward end of baking, lightly cover with foil so cake does not over bake.
- Cool to room temp.
- Chill until cold overnight.
- Heat frosting in microwave and pour over cake!
