Crust

the bottom
and 1 1/2" up the sides with crumbs, set aside.
Filling
All Ingredients need to be at room temperature before beginning.
Beat cream cheese until light and fluffy. Keep mixer on a low
setting during the mixing and beating process. Add sugar gradually
and continue beating cream cheese until mixed through. Add eggs one
at a time and continue to beat until blended.
Measure the vanilla, salt and flour, pour into cream cheese and egg
mixture and beat until smooth. Add the sour cream and beat well.
Turn off the mixer and stir in the coarsely chopped oreo cookies
with a spoon.
Pour cream cheese into the spring pan and place the nine coarsely
chopped Oreo Cookies on to of the cream mixture. Place pan on the
top rack and in the middle of a preheated oven at 325 degrees and
bake for one hour and 15 minutes. When time is up prop the oven
door open and let the cheese cake stay in the oven for one hour.
Remove from oven and let cool enough to place in the refrigerator
for 24 hours. It is worth the anticipation. A cheese cake should
season. The flavor ripens and becomes enriched.
