This cheesecake is easy to make, and the addition of the OREO Chocolate Creme Cookies on top really make it stand out as a beautiful cheesecake. It would also be a wonderful dessert for your Thanksgiving feast.

The OREO crust was perfect, and the two layers of cheesecake are cool, creamy and absolutely delicious.
