This copycat cheesecake takes inspiration from the childhood favorite ice cream flavor. I love how it looks decorated with Oreos on top. It's fun, festive and delicious. My family loves cheesecake, so I'm always experimenting with different kinds. This one was not too sweet or rich, but delicious all the same. As with all cheesecake recipes, it is best to start with all ingredients at room temperature.
I have nothing but good memories at the Cheesecake Factory. One of my favorites is when my husband and I went there on one of our first few dates. The server was really friendly and chatty. He told my husband (then-boyfriend) what a great couple we were and how comfortable we seemed with each other. He thought we had been together much longer than just a few months. Well, not long after that, my husband proposed to me and we are now married! I guess the server had good intuition.
I hope you enjoy this cheesecake as much as we did!

I was wondering about your http://www.buttercreambarbie.com/2010/06/heath-english-toffee-bits-copycat.html Can i double the recipe or should i make 2 batches?
You should probably make 2 batches instead of doubling the recipe, especially for candy making. Good luck!
Wow Tia...this cake is amazing! I love the Cheesecake Factory but don't get there as often as I'd like. Your cheesecake seems like the perfect solution! : )
That looks amazing!

Yummy cheesecakes are looking very lovely. I will definitely try them. Thanks for sharing the recipe, as I also love to know about the latest recipes.
This looks so yummy but I never have sour cream in the fridge , do you think I could substitute it with something else?
