There's nothing better than Oreos baked into other desserts, so we were thrilled when we received an Oreo Dream Extreme Cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory. The restaurant empire released this limited-edition flavor to its stores on July 30 to celebrate both National Cheesecake Day and the 100th birthday of the Oreo.

Get it while it lasts, because this is no ordinary cheesecake. It has archaeological layers of chocolate-y goodness waiting to be discovered. Starting with an unctuous layer of chocolate cake, it's followed by whole Oreo cookies embedded in vanilla cheesecake. A sizable spread of chocolate icing blankets the whole thing, and, finally, mini chocolate chips, studded around the sides, add a little crunch to the otherwise smooth slice. Our eyes feasted, but what about our palates? Take a look at our comments and ratings of this extreme cheesecake.

Many recipes for cheesecake or pie call for a cookie crust. If you have a food processor, they're very easy to make, you just blitz until the cookies turn into fine crumbs. Then mix well with melted butter, this ensures that all of the crumbs are coated. When pressing into the pan, it's essential to create an even layer. To do this, I like to use the bottom of a measuring cup. Press gently on the bottom and up along the sides of the pan. This distributes the crumbs evenly. Do you have a tip for cookie-crumb crusts? Please share with us below!
