Ingredients

Oreo Crust

Chocolate Whipped Cream (to be divided cheesecake and topping)

Chocolate Cheesecake Filling

Topping

  • remaining chocolate whipping cream about 1 ½ cups worth
  • 1 can cherry pie filling I used Lucky Leaf
  • Optional: semi-sweet chocolate chips for sprinkling on top of chocolate whipped cream swirls

Instructions

Oreo Crust

  • To start, place Oreo cookies with the cream filling in food processor and pulse to get fine crumbs. If you do not have a food processor, place cookies in a Ziploc bag and beat with a rolling pin to get your oreo cookie crumbs.
  • Add melted butter to the crumbs, mix together and press into an 8-inch springform pan, pressing the crumbs partly up the sides of the pan too.
  • Place crust in fridge until filling is ready.

Chocolate Whipped Cream

  • Whip together the whipping cream and powdered sugar together until you start to get stiff peaks.
  • Mix or fold in the unsweetened chocolate powder until the chocolate streaks disappear and measure out 3 cups of chocolate whipped cream for the chocolate cheesecake filling.
  • Add the remaining chocolate whipped cream into a bowl or pastry bag with a large star tip for the swirly border on top.

Chocolate Cheesecake Filling

  • Melt semi sweet chocolate chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl for 1 minute. Stir and if needed, heat in additional 15-30 seconds increments until chocolate is melted and smooth. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, using a mixer beat the softened cream cheese with granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder until combined well.
  • Add in melted chocolate and mix into mixture until smooth.
  • Fold in chocolate whipped cream and mix together.
  • Pour cheesecake filling into prepared cookie crust.
  • Refrigerate cheesecake for 4 hours, or overnight.

Topping

  • Pipe the remaining chocolate whipped cream onto the top of the cheesecake or spread it evenly on top however you like.
  • Add Lucky Leaf cherry pie filling in the middle  and sprinkle with chocolate chips on top of the whipped cream swirls.

Serve

  • Remove cheesecake from the springform pan, by sliding a butter knife around the edge of the pan first. Slide the pan off and slice and serve.
