3.5 oz whipping cream (100 ml), 35% fat

Instructions

The base

Crush the oreo cookies into a fine crumbs. Place in a bowl and add in melted butter. Mix everything together. Pour into a 7 inch removable bottom pan. Press to the base of the pan and place to chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.

The cheesecake

In a bowl, add in sugar and cream cheese. Mix on high speed for 3-5 minutes until smooth and sugar is dissolved.
Add in whipping cream and vanilla extract. Mix until the mixture thickens. Do not overmix to avoid splitting the cream.
In another bowl, add in water and powdered gelatine. Leave to soak for 5 minutes. Heat in microwave or double boiled until gelatine is dissolved. Add some cheesecake mixture (2-3 tbsp) into the dissolved gelatine to temper it, stir mix well to combine.
Add tempered gelatine mixture into cheesecake mixture. Immediately mix well to combine. Add in crushed oreo cookies and stir to combine.
Pour half of cheesecake mixture into the pan and spread evenly. Arrange some oreo cookies on top and slowly pour the rest of cheesecake mixture. Spread evenly and smooth out the top. Give it a gentle shake to settle everything in.
Leave to set in the fridge for 48 hours. It takes longer to set as it uses less amount of gelatine.

Assembling

After 48 hours or the cheesecake has set, take it out from the fridge. Make a simple ganache by melting chocolate with whipping cream in microwave or double boiler. Pour the ganache on top of the cheesecake, spread evenly and smooth out the top. Put back in the fridge to let the ganache set, for 1 hour.
Mix whipping cream with icing sugar. Place in a piping bag and pipe on top of ganache. Place oreo halves on top. Ready to serve.

Notes

This cheesecake takes a bit longer to set as it uses less amount of gelatine. Just make sure it's fully set before proceeding with the rest. The waiting time is totally worth it, you'll see :)
