- Fold in the sour cream and vanilla until combined.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until incorporated.
- Divide the batter into three bowls, tint one with yellow gel food coloring and another with orange.
- Layer the batters into the cooled Oreo crusts starting with yellow, then orange, and finishing with plain cream cheese batter.
- Bake for 15 minutes, then turn off the oven and let them cool in the oven with the door closed for 10 minutes.
- Chill the cheesecakes in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours until set.
- Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Fold in orange food coloring.
- Remove cheesecakes from the fridge and pipe the orange whipped cream topping on each. Top with Halloween decorations if desired.
