Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a springform pan with parchment paper. Mix Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter, then press firmly into the pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool.
- Make the Filling: Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add peanut butter and vanilla extract, mixing well. Beat in eggs one at a time, then fold in Reese’s pieces or chopped Reese’s cups.
- Bake the Cheesecake: Pour the batter over the crust and bake for 50-60 minutes until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let it cool inside for 1 hour. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
