Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy lifting later.
Crush 24 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and smashing them with a rolling pin.
Melt the butter in a small bowl and mix it thoroughly with the Oreo crumbs to create a cohesive mixture.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form an even crust. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Coarsely chop the remaining 12 Oreo cookies and fold them gently into the cream cheese mixture.
Pour the cream cheese filling over the prepared crust and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and does not jiggle in the center. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
While the bars cool, prepare the chocolate ganache topping. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the ganache over the cooled cheesecake bars, spreading it evenly.
Refrigerate for at least 3 hours (or overnight) to allow the bars to set.
Once set, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and slice into squares or rectangles. Serve chilled and enjoy!
