Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish really well with cooking spray. Set aside.Note: To make it easier to get the bars out of the pan, you can line the pan with aluminum foil and then spray.

Press the oreo crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 10 minutes.Let cool while you make the filling.
Place cream cheese in a large bowl. Beat with a hand-held electric mixer until creamy and smooth.Beat in sugar, scraping down the sides of the bowl to make sure everything is evenly mixed.
Beat in sour cream, vanilla, and salt.
Beat the eggs in one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Fold in the chopped oreos.
Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust, smoothing it out with a rubber spatula.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. It should be just a little wobbly in the middle when you take it out.
Let cool 1 hour and then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before cutting into squares.
Garnish with whipped cream and oreo cookies if desired.
Notes
For the crust, do NOT remove the cream from the cookies.
