Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 14.3-ounce package of Birthday Cake Oreos, or Golden Oreos
- 6–7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:
- 8 ounces white chocolate
- 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, plus 4 tablespoons, divided
- 3/4 cup vanilla cake mix, divided
- 16 ounces cream cheese, (2 packages)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
- 1/2 cup sprinkles
For the Topping:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- Assorted fresh fruit, as desired

Instructions
For the Crust:
- Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lightly greasing the edges of the pan with cooking spray, and then wiping gently with a paper towel. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper.
- Grind the cookies into a fine crumb using a food processor or blender.
- In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds. Pour the melted butter over the cookie crumbs and stir until the crumbs are well coated.
- Pour the crumbs into your springform pan and press firmly into the bottom and up on the sides to create a thick crust. Refrigerate the crust while you are preparing the filling.
For the Filling:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and 4 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream. Microwave at 50% power in 30-second increments, stirring each time until the chocolate is melted. Stir until completely smooth.
- Place the mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes to chill.
Prepare the Whipped Cream:
- Pour 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until it starts to thicken.
- Slowly add 1/2 cup of cake mix and continue beating at high speed until stiff peaks form. Set the whipped cream aside.
- Beat the softened cream cheese until it’s completely smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Next add the granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of cake mix, vanilla, and almond extract, and continue beating until smooth.
- Next add the melted chocolate, beating until it’s completely mixed into the cream cheese.
- Finally, slowly fold in the whipped cream and sprinkles in two batches until it’s completely smooth.
- Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading evenly.
- Refrigerate for 3-4 hours minimum.
For the Topping:
- Prepare another batch of whipped cream by placing your bowl in the freezer for 5-10 minutes.
- To prepare the whipped cream, pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and beat it with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until it starts to thicken.
- Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating at high speed until stiff peaks form.
- Pipe the borders of the pie with whipped cream using a large open star tip.
- Garnish with fresh fruit.
Notes
- Store this cheesecake airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Leave off the whipped cream topping until you’re ready to serve.
