Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until the texture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of your springform pan.
- Place the prepared crust in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes or until set and lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely at room temperature.
- In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Gradually add in the sour cream and vanilla, then add the eggs one at a time.
- Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust in the springform pan.
- Return the cheesecake to the oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes. The center should be slightly wobbly while the edges should be set.
- Let the cheesecake cool at room temperature for about 1 hour. Then cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
- Dissolve the strawberry Jell-O in boiling water according to package instructions. Mix in cold water and refrigerate until it thickens slightly.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping and chopped strawberries into the thickened Jell-O, and spread this mixture over the chilled cheesecake.
- Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Spread it generously over the strawberry layer.
- Crush the Golden Oreos and mix with melted butter and powdered strawberry Jell-O. Sprinkle this over the whipped cream layer.

Notes
