20 pieces Oreo cookies, crushed Don't fuss about separating the filling—the more mix, the better!
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted Rich, sturdy crust; use unsalted for better flavor control.

8 oz cream cheese, softened Leave it out for 30 mins before you start for easy mixing.
1/2 cup powdered sugar Provides that sweet, melt-in-your-mouth factor.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract Use pure vanilla for better flavor.
1 cup heavy whipping cream Whip until thick and billowy for dreamy mousse.
1 cup Oreo cookie crumbs, for topping Don't skimp on toppings for extra deliciousness.

Start by tossing the crushed Oreos and melted butter together in a bowl. Press the mix into the bottom of a greased 9-inch springform pan.
In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula.
Pour the mousse mixture over your Oreo crust and smooth the top. Chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
Before serving, top with extra whipped cream and Oreo crumbs.

Chill longer for cleaner slices. Use a springform pan for easy release.
