• 4-5 oz (113-142 g) white chocolate for decorative curls

Preparation

To make the Oreo cookie crust, place the whole cookies in a food processor to make fine crumbs. 

In a bowl, mix ½ cup melted butter with the Oreo cookie crumbs until the dough is evenly moistened.

Then, press the mixture into the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch dish.

Place the dish in the freezer to firm up the crust while making the cheesecake layer.

In a bowl, mix ½ cup softened butter, 8 oz softened cream cheese, and 1 cup powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.

To make the chocolate curls, use a vegetable peeler on the surface of a room-temperature white chocolate bar. Sprinkle the curls over the whipped cream. 

Refrigerate for 2 more hours before serving, or overnight.

Notes:

The cake keeps in the refrigerator.

For the whipped cream, you can use thawed whipped topping like Cool Whip. For homemade whipped cream, beat 3 ½ cups of heavy whipped cream with 2 tablespoons of vanilla until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar to taste and continue mixing at high speed until firm peaks form.
