- Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture:
- In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Combine the Mixtures:
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated. Add the coarsely crushed Oreos and mix gently to distribute evenly.
- Assemble the Cheesecake:
- Spoon the filling over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Chill the Cheesecake:
- Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until set.
