Ingredients

  • 2 cups Golden Oreo cookies (about 20), crushed
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 16 oz (450 g) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
  • 1 cup diced fresh strawberries or ¼ cup strawberry puree
  • 20 Golden Oreo cookies, crushed (for topping)
  • 1 box (3 oz) strawberry gelatin mix OR ¼ cup freeze-dried strawberry powder
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (for topping)
  • Optional: fresh strawberries, whipped cream, white chocolate drizzle

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) if baking crust. Mix crushed Oreos, melted butter, and sugar until combined. Press into mini cupcake liners or molds. Bake 8–10 minutes or chill 30 minutes for no-bake option.
  2. In a bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Mix in sour cream, then add eggs one at a time. Stir in vanilla, lemon juice, and diced strawberries or puree.
  3. Spoon filling over prepared crusts. Bake 20–25 minutes at 325°F, until centers are mostly set but slightly jiggly. Cool, then refrigerate at least 2 hours.
  4. For topping: mix crushed Oreos, strawberry gelatin (or strawberry powder), and melted butter. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes to crisp, or leave unbaked for no-bake version. Cool and break into crumbs.
  5. Remove chilled cheesecakes from liners. Coat each with strawberry crunch topping, pressing gently so it sticks.
  6. Optional: garnish with whipped cream, halved strawberries, or drizzle with white chocolate.

Notes

  • Use raspberries, blueberries, or other berries in place of strawberries for variety.
  • Swap Golden Oreos for graham crackers, digestives, or pretzels for different crusts.
  • Make no-bake cheesecake by replacing eggs with whipped topping and chilling instead of baking.
  • Fold in mini chocolate chips for a chocolate-strawberry version.
  • Scale up recipe for a full-size springform pan cheesecake.
