My Favorite Oreo Cookie Cheesecake, cookies and cream, yum! What’s not to love? I know, this is nothing new to the culinary world. But…. this is too good not to share.

As I was going through some notebooks full of old recipes, I came across this beauty. A rich and creamy New York style cheesecake loaded with big chunks of Oreo Cookies.

I found this recipe many moons ago in a Sunset magazine. The date on the page is 1987. Yep, 1987, that’s not a typo.

Cookies and cream were all the rage back then and still are to this day.

This Cake uses an entire 1 1/2 pound package of Oreo cookies. Half for the crust and the other half broken up and cooked into the filling.

It is absolutely decadent and worth every calorie. Hey, I just read an article today that said chocolate cake for breakfast is good for you. I think this one counts, right?

Anyway, it doesn’t matter if you have cake for dessert or breakfast, just eat cake!
