Description
A rich and creamy birthday cheesecake with a buttery Golden Oreo crust and colorful rainbow sprinkles, topped with fluffy whipped cream. Perfect for celebrations or a fun twist on a classic dessert.
Ingredients
24 Golden Oreo cookies
5 tablespoons melted butter
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 large eggs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles (jimmies style)
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional rainbow sprinkles for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the sides.
- Pulse the Golden Oreo cookies in a food processor until finely ground. Mix in the melted butter until combined.
- Press the crust mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 10 minutes. Let cool slightly.
- Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add granulated sugar and beat until fluffy.
- Mix in the sour cream and vanilla extract.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined after each addition.
- Stir in the flour until incorporated, then gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles.
- Pour the batter over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, until edges are set and center slightly jiggles.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly open for 1 hour.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- To make the topping, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Pipe or spread the whipped cream over the chilled cheesecake and garnish with additional rainbow sprinkles before serving.
Notes
Use jimmies-style sprinkles to prevent bleeding in the batter.
Let the cheesecake cool gradually to avoid cracks.
Cheesecake sets best when chilled overnight.
Do not microwave to reheat; let thaw in the fridge if frozen.
Store leftovers tightly wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze slices for up to 2 months.
