- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:
- Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are finely crushed.
- Transfer the crushed cookies to a mixing bowl and pour in the melted butter. Stir until the mixture is well combined and resembles wet sand.

- In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
- Fold in the melted chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the filling.
- Pour the filling over the chilled cookie crust in the springform pan, spreading it out into an even layer.
- Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set.
