Really… just look at it!!

ingredients:
Crust-

• 1 1/2 cups crushed Oreos (about 16 cookies)
• 3 tablespoons butter

Filling-

• 12 oz. (1 bag) semi-sweet chocolate chips (high quality)
• 3 packages (8 oz. each) Philadelphia Cream Cheese
• 1 1/4 cups sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup sour cream (any fat content)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 eggs
• Whipped Cream (3/4 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla)
• 1 can- Cherry Pie Filling

directions:

• Pull out all ingredients, and allow them to sit out at room temperature while you make the crust.

Prepare the crust-

1. Preheat oven to 375*F. Crush the cookies in a bag (no need to remove the filling), then place cookie crumbs in a bowl. Melt the butter in a small bowl, then pour butter over crumbs and stir until evenly moist. Dump mixture into the bottom of a 9" springform pan and press down firmly on the bottom and up the sides of the pan about 1". I use a measuring cup to press the crumbs up the sides, and around the bottom.
2. Bake crust in pre-heated oven for 10 minutes.
