Note

I made this for my dads birthday. It was the first actual cheesecake ive ever made and it turned out really good. The original recipe had a homemade oreo crust that was twice as big but just used a premade chocolate crust and halved the recipe. Might add those full instructions later but you would make the pie crust with crushed oreos and butter double the recipe and bake for 75-85 minutes. Or you could get two crusts and double the recipes to the less weird measurements not sure if or how 2 cheesecakes at once would affect baking time
