Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 325ยฐF (163ยฐC). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
2. For the crust: In a bowl, combine Oreo crumbs and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool.
3. For the cheesecake: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and mix well. Beat in sour cream and vanilla extract. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in cocoa powder and red food coloring until fully incorporated. Gently fold in the crushed Oreos.
4. Pour the cheesecake batter into the cooled crust, spreading evenly.
