Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Place a shallow pan 1/2-full with water on the lower oven rack to minimize cracking in the cheesecake. Spray the inside of a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.

02

Step

Mix chocolate sandwich cookies, sugar, and butter together in a bowl; press into the bottom of the prepared pan. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Beat cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk together in a separate bowl using an electric mixer until smooth; beat in eggs, 1 at a time, until just blended. Stir candy bars and vanilla extract into cream cheese mixture; pour over crust. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are set and center is still slightly soft, about 50 minutes. Turn off oven, leaving door open, and cool cheesecake in oven, at least 1 hour. Run a knife or spatula around the edges to loosen cheesecake; refrigerate in the pan until set, 8 hours or overnight. (9 hours)

For a smoother crust, pulse the cookies in a food processor until finely ground.
Ensure your cream cheese is fully softened for a lump-free batter.
Don't overbake the cheesecake; a slight jiggle in the center is perfect.
Get creative with your candy bar selection! Consider using other favorites like Reese's or Twix for a unique twist.
For an elegant presentation, garnish with a drizzle of melted chocolate and a sprinkle of chopped nuts before serving.
