Oreo Cookie Cheesecake from the Mon Ami Restaurant

Found this yummy recipe from my "Best of the Best from Ohio" cookbook, which is a recipe from the Mon Ami Restuarant and Winery in Port Clinton, Ohio. Nice creamy combination of chocolate and cheesecake!!! (Time doesn't include any refrigeration time) UPDATE: Just made this and the taste is wonderful, but for me I would cook it at a higher temperature for the 50 minutes, like 300, as mine never set up very well, but I followed there directions, maybe it was my oven, but don't think that is the case, maybe an error in the cookbook!!

Directions

  1. For the crust:
  2. Mix cookie crumbs with melted butter; press in bottom of 9-inch springform pan and refrigerate 1/2 hour.
  3. For the filling:
  4. In a large mixer bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add 1 1/4 cups sugar and flour, then blend in eggs and yolks until smooth. Stir in cream and one teaspoon vanilla. Pour half this mixture into prepared pan, sprinkle with crumbs, and then pour in remaining batter. Bake 15 minutes at 425 degrees; reduce temperature to 225 degrees( I would cook it at 300 degrees as mine never set up right) and bake 50 minutes. Cover loosely with foil if browning too quickly.
