Steps:

• In a medium size bowl, combine the crushed cookies and softened butter. Mix well. Press this into the bottom of an 8" square springform pan, or a baking pan that has been lined with parchment paper or foil. If you use foil, spray the foil with cooking spray. Bake the crust at 350 degrees for 8 minutes.
• While the crust is baking, place the cream cheese in a bowl. Beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until it is smooth. Add in the eggs, sour cream, sugar and vanilla. Beat the mixture until it is smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes.
• Once the Oreo crust has cooled, pour half of the cheesecake batter into the crust.
• Microwave the strawberry preserves for about 30 seconds and mix it. Drizzle 1/2 cup of the warm strawberry preserves over the cheesecake batter. Pour the rest of the cheesecake batter in the pan. Drizzle the remaining 1/2 cup of strawberry preserves on top of the cheesecake batter. Using a knife, gently swirl the strawberry preserves back and forth to create a swirl pattern.
• In a small bowl, combined the softened butter, sugar and flour until you have small crumbs. Sprinkle this topping on the top of the cheesecake batter.
• Bake the cheesecake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. The center of the cheesecake should be set and the edges very lightly browned.
• Allow the cheesecake to cool for 30 minutes, then move the cheesecake to the refrigerator to set for at least 4 hours, but preferrably overnight. Once the cheesecake is cool, remove it from the pan and cut it into 16 squares.
• Store the cheesecake bars in the refrigerator.
• Serve with strawberries and whipped cream, if desired.

STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE BARS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9-by-13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse the cookies until they form fine crumbs (you should have about 2 1/2 cups). Add the salt and pulse briefly to combine, then add the melted butter and pulse until uniformly incorporated. Press the crust into an even layer on the bottom of the prepared pan and wipe out the bowl of the food processor. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the crust has browned slightly and appears set, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees.
• Make the filling: In a medium pot, toss the strawberries with 1/4 cup/50 grams granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries begin to soften and the mixture becomes juicy, 4 to 8 minutes, depending on the firmness of the berries. Cool for 15 minutes.
• Transfer the strawberries and their juices to the food processor and purée until smooth, about 1 minute. Transfer the berry purée to a large bowl and set aside. Add the remaining 1 1/4 cups/250 grams granulated sugar and the cream cheese to the food processor bowl and blend until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time and pulse until incorporated, scraping down the sides of the food processor bowl as needed.
• Add the vanilla and pulse to combine. Scrape the custard into the berry purée and stir to combine. The batter should be a pale pink. If it's not, add 3 to 5 drops red food coloring and mix to combine. Pour the cheesecake custard into the cooled crust.
• Bake the cheesecake until the edges appear set and the center still appears slightly jiggly, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool at room temperature for 45 minutes, then refrigerate until firm (at least 4 hours, and up to overnight).
• Make the topping: In an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the cream and confectioners' sugar to medium peaks, 3 to 4 minutes. Spread the whipped cream on the chilled cheesecake in an even layer. Arrange the sliced strawberries on top. (Arranging them in stripes makes it a bit easier to cut rows out of the bars later.) Use a sharp knife to release the edges of the cheesecake from the pan. Slice into 15 even pieces, wiping the knife clean between cuts for the clean, sharp edges.

• Slice and serve.
