How to Prepare:

Red Velvet Cake Bottom:
1️⃣ Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan and an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment and non-stick spray.
2️⃣ Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Mix in sour cream, oil, vanilla extract, eggs, and red food coloring. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients and buttermilk. Fold in baking soda and vinegar. Divide batter between the two pans and bake for 18-20 minutes. Allow to cool.
Oreo Cheesecake Filling:
3️⃣ Process Oreo wafers into fine crumbs. Beat cream cheese with Oreo filling, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth. Mix in sour cream, vanilla extract, whole eggs, and egg yolk. Fold in Oreo crumbs and chopped Oreos gently. Pour over cooled red velvet cake base in the springform pan.
Baking:
4️⃣ Place springform pan in a water bath and bake at 300°F (150°C) for about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Cheesecake should be set but slightly wobbly in the center. Allow to cool gradually in the oven with the door slightly open, then chill overnight in the fridge.
Ganache Topping:
5️⃣ Microwave chocolate chips and heavy cream in intervals, stirring until smooth. Pour ganache over chilled cheesecake.
Decoration:
6️⃣ Crumble reserved red velvet cake and press onto the sides of the cheesecake. Decorate with swirls of cream cheese frosting and sprinkle chopped Oreos.
Serve:
