OREO Cheesecakes! Yum!

Don't you guys just love to eat Oreo Cheesecakes?

Well, personally I really do. I had this cake as a birthday gift for a friend last year.



Yep. It's so rich and tasty and I felt so good munching on it. It was a brief moment of indulgence as I cut and stole a slice or two from it. I then thought maybe I should go figure out how can I start baking oreo cheesecakes on my own perhaps, heh! So I decided to go hunt for some help..heh heh :D

Ok, this recipe was shared from my cousin and she has been baking for about 6 years. I am about to share it with you guys. I've tried it once, and I tell you you won't regret trying it out. It's irresistibly delicious!!

Now, without any further due - the recipe, revealed!
