Cookies and Cream Slices: My craziness for the Oreo cookie!

Ok, I know what you will say, "THE OREO AGAIN!" Well, I have to admit that I really can't say no to this ^^. As long as I still love my Oreo cookie (and I need about 3 packs of it in the fridge, haha).

But how can you resist it, the soft white cream and the deep dark chocolate cookie, the contrast between the sweetness and bitterness, that create the delicious sandwich cookie, that I love!
For this time, the cookie and cream come in big slice. I get the recipe from the book 


The recipe is the answer for both me and my sister, the combination of the sweet and creamy from the white chocolate and cream cheese with a big chunk of Oreo cookies. 
I make a small tray of this sweet, well, I think that most of us know it, that even we like to indulge ourself with the food that we love but the moderation is what we need too ^^. I really believe that you can eat anything as long as you don't eat too much of it, and we will be happy with our food and  our health at the same time.
I just try the new method for making a cookie crust by beating the butter than melting it, the results is good, you will get more light (not too dense) crust, but there is a down side that the crust won't hold its shape very well if the slice is in the room temperature for a long time.
So, if you want denser crust, just melt the butter and mix it with the cookie crumbs. And I hope that you will love this dessert as much as I do, esp. if you're crazy about the Oreo as much as I do, haha.
