FAQs:

Can I use a different type of cookie for the crust?

Yes, you can substitute the Oreos for another type of cookie, such as graham crackers or chocolate chip cookies. Just make sure to crush them finely and mix with melted butter to form the crust.

How can I ensure the cheesecake sets properly?

To ensure your cheesecake sets properly, refrigerate it for at least 6 hours or overnight. This allows the cream cheese and heavy cream mixture to firm up and hold its shape.

Can I use pre-whipped cream instead of whipping my own?

While you can use pre-whipped cream, whipping your own heavy cream will give the cheesecake a better texture and taste. Additionally, homemade whipped cream tends to be more stable.
