Description
A vibrant and stunning dessert with layers of creamy cheesecake, a crunchy Oreo crust, and colorful rainbow appeal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups crushed Oreo cookies (about 20 Oreos)
- 5 tbsp melted butter
- 24 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Food coloring: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple
- 1 cup white chocolate (for glaze)
- ½ cup heavy cream
- Additional Oreos, sprinkles, or edible glitter (for decoration)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
- Crush Oreos into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter. Press into the bottom of a lined 9-inch springform pan, then chill in the refrigerator.
- In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in heavy cream and vanilla extract.
- Divide the batter evenly into six bowls and tint each with gel-based food coloring (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple).
- Pour the purple batter into the crust and smooth. Layer each colored batter in reverse rainbow order, smoothing each layer before adding the next.
- Place the springform pan into a water bath and bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the center is just set. Turn off the oven, crack the door, and allow the cake to cool for an hour before chilling in the refrigerator overnight.
- For the glaze, melt white chocolate and mix with heavy cream until smooth. Tint portions with food coloring, and drizzle over the edges of the chilled cheesecake for a rainbow drip effect.
- Decorate with additional Oreo pieces, sprinkles, or edible glitter before serving.
Notes
For vibrant colors, use gel-based food coloring. Be sure to smooth each layer for an even rainbow effect.
