Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  3. Bake the crust for 10 minutes until light golden brown. Allow it to cool completely.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add sour cream and vanilla extract. Incorporate eggs one at a time.
  5. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and bake for 45-50 minutes until slightly wobbly in the center. Let cool in the oven for about an hour.
  6. Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  7. Dissolve Strawberry Jell-O in boiling water, then add cold water. Once thickened, fold in whipped topping and chopped strawberries.

  9. Combine crushed Golden Oreos with melted butter and a sprinkle of Strawberry Jell-O powder. Sprinkle over the cheesecake.
