Finely crush the Oreo cookies using a food processor or place them in a large Ziploc bag and crush with a rolling pin until they form fine crumbs.
In a large bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs, melted butter, and a pinch of salt until well mixed.
Press the crust mixture into the bottom and sides of a tart pan with a removable bottom using the bottom of a glass or your hands. Make sure it's an even layer.
Freeze the crust for at least 10 minutes to set.
In a large mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy cream using an electric mixer or stand mixer with a whisk attachment until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
In another large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar on medium speed until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Add the confectioners' sugar, sour cream, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium-high speed until fully combined and smooth, ensuring there are no lumps.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a rubber spatula, taking care to combine slowly to retain the air in the whipped cream. Fold in the chopped Oreo chunks.

Ingredients

For The Crust:

2 cups finely crushed Oreo cookies about 32 cookies
½ cup unsalted butter melted
A pinch of salt

For The Cheesecake Filling:

1¼ cups heavy whipping cream
24 ounces full-fat cream cheese softened to room temperature
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup confectioners' sugar
¼ cup sour cream at room temperature
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
8 chopped Oreo cookies

For The Ganache Topping:

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ cup heavy cream
A pinch of flaky salt for garnish

Instructions

For the Crust:

Finely crush the Oreo cookies with a food processor or blender to create fine crumbs.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs, melted butter, and a pinch of salt until well mixed.
Using your hand or a flat-bottomed cup, press this mixture into the bottom and sides of a tart pan with a removable bottom.
Freeze the crust for at least 10 minutes to set. While the crust is in the freezer, make the filling.

Make the Filling:

Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form (about 4-5 minutes). Set aside.
In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Add the confectioners' sugar, sour cream, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes until fully combined and smooth. Ensure there are no lumps.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a silicone spatula. Combine slowly to retain the air in the whipped cream.
Fold in the Oreo chunks with a rubber spatula.

Assemble the Cheesecake:

Remove the crust from the freezer and spread the filling evenly over it using an offset spatula to smooth the top.
Cover tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 6-8 hours, preferably overnight (about 12 hours), for the best set.

For the Ganache Topping:

Heat the heavy cream in a medium microwave-safe bowl until it's hot and slightly bubbly. Start with 30 seconds and check, as it may take longer depending on your microwave.
Remove from the microwave and add the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Let it sit for at least 3 minutes; you can cover it with plastic wrap to expedite the process.
Stir until everything melts and the mixture is smooth.
Spread the chocolate ganache evenly over the cheesecake using the back of a spoon or a small offset spatula.
Sprinkle a pinch of flaky salt over the ganache for a finishing touch.
Place it back in the fridge and let it sit for 15 minutes. Slice and serve!
