CHEESECAKE FACTORY'S OREO DREAM EXTREME CHEESECAKE



Cheesecake Factory's Oreo Dream Extreme Cheesecake image

Just earlier this year, Cheesecake Factory released their new Oreo Dream Extreme Cheesecake, featuring a layer of chocolate fudge cake, chocolate icing, oreo cheesecake, oreo mousse, and more chocolate icing. By combining a few different recipes, including a few by Todd Wilbur, I was able to come up with a clone that tasted just like the original. The only difference was that, instead of spreading an extra layer of chocolate icing on top, I made a chocolate ganache. I've included the recipe for it and will let you decide what to spread on top. While this recipe is certainly time consuming, it's definitely well worth it and will be SURE to impress any company! :-)

Time 6h25m

Yield 12 slices, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 31

9 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon shortening
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons hershey's cocoa powder (not dark)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
chocolate icing (your favorite recipe)
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
Oreo cookies, original flavor (not double stuffed)
0.5 (1/4 ounce) package knox unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup hot water
2 ounces white baking chocolate
1 egg yolk
1 1/2 teaspoons honey or 1 1/2 teaspoons corn syrup
1 tablespoon milk
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
10 Oreo cookies, crushed
1 egg
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
6 ounces mini chocolate chips (1/2 bag)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Make the chocolate cake by combining the sugar, egg, and vanilla in a medium bowl and mixing with an electric mixer on high for 2 minute. Add the oil and shortening and mix well, then add the water and mix until smooth.
  • In another medium bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Pour this dry blend into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix until smooth. Pour into a well-greased 10-inch springform pan and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
  • While the cake is in the oven, prepare chocolate icing. Once the cake is completely cool, spread icing over the top of the cake, reserving some for garnishing the cake later. Freeze cake with icing for 1 hour.
  • Prepare the oreo cheesecake layer by mixing the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on high until the cream forms stiff peaks. Mix in the softened cream cheese until smooth. Spread 1/3 of the mixture over the icing on the cake. Place whole oreo cookies in a single layer across the entire cake. Follow with the remaining cheesecake mixture. Chill for 1 hour.
  • Make the oreo mousse layer by mixing ½ packet of the powdered gelatin with the hot water. Refrigerate until set. Once set, place in cold water to soften gelatin enough to loosen it from the pan. Place softened gelatin into a double boiler and melt.
  • In a separate double boiler, melt the chocolate, being careful not to burn it. Add melted chocolate to gelatin and mix well.
  • Whip egg yolks by hand in a small bowl to soft foamy peaks. Mean while, bring honey to a boil. Pour hot honey onto the yolks stirring constantly. Fold the melted chocolate into the yolk mixture. Heat the milk in a small saucepan. Stir the milk into the chocolate mixture.
  • In a large bowl, whip the cream to soft peaks and fold into the chocolate mixture. Add the crushed oreos to the mixture and mix well.
  • Pour enough mousse over the cheesecake layer to form a layer about ½ inch thick. There may be mousse left over. Chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Prepare chocolate ganache layer by whisking together the egg, cream, and sugar in a medium metal bow. Set the bowl over water that is simmering in a medium saucepan over medium/low heat (you can also use a double boiler pan for this) and whisk for 6 minutes, or until thick. Remove the bowl from the heat, add the chocolate chips (not the mini chocolate chips), and mix with a spoon until smooth. Spread over the oreo mousse layer. Chill at least 1 hour.
  • Load the reserved chocolate icing into a piping bag. Remove cake from springform pan and pipe icing into 12 even circles around the side of the cake. Lay ½ oreo cookie with cream filling removed back onto each mound of icing.
  • Press mini chocolate chips around the sides of the cake. Press firmly so that the chips stick. Chill the cake for at least another hour, then use a serrated knife to cut the cake into 12 slices.
  • Serve with a mound of whipped cream and oreo cookie pieces to the side.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your cheesecake. Look for fresh cream cheese, sour cream, and eggs. You should also use a good quality vanilla extract and sugar.
  • Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature. This will help it mix smoothly with the other ingredients. If your cream cheese is cold, it will be difficult to mix and may cause lumps in your cheesecake.
  • Don't overbeat the batter. Overbeating can cause the cheesecake to be dense and crumbly. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking and will also help it to cook evenly.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly and will also allow the flavors to develop.

Conclusion:

Cheesecake is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a cheesecake that everyone will love. Whether you're looking for a classic cheesecake, a fruit-filled cheesecake, or a chocolate cheesecake, you're sure to find a recipe that you'll love in this article. So what are you waiting for?
