Ingredients That Make This Cheesecake Irresistible
- Oreo cookies (250 grams) – Provides the perfect crumbly, chocolatey base and adds a delightful crunch throughout the filling.
- Butter (60 grams, melted) – Holds the Oreo crust together, creating a firm base for the cheesecake.
- Full-fat cream cheese (500 grams) – The star ingredient for that smooth and creamy texture.
- Thickened or heavy cream (240 ml) – Helps achieve a luscious, whipped consistency for the cheesecake filling.
- Granulated sugar (65 grams) – Sweetens the filling just enough to balance the tang of the cream cheese.
- Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon) – Adds a subtle aromatic flavor to enhance the richness of the cheesecake.
- Sour cream (60 ml) – Adds a slight tang to balance the sweetness and makes the filling extra creamy.
- Oreo cookies (150 grams, chopped) – Folded into the filling for extra chocolatey goodness.
- Whipped cream (240 ml) – For piping decorative swirls that add a fluffy finish.
- Crushed Oreos and mini Oreo cookies – For an eye-catching garnish and extra crunch.
How to Make the Perfect No Bake Oreo Cheesecake
- Prepare the crust: Blitz Oreo cookies into fine crumbs, then mix with melted butter until well combined. Press this mixture into the base of a springform pan and refrigerate to set.
- Make the filling: Beat softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth. Gradually add thickened cream, whipping until fluffy. Fold in sour cream and chopped Oreos.
- Assemble and chill: Pour the creamy filling over the chilled Oreo crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Allow the cheesecake to chill in the fridge for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Decorate: Pipe whipped cream along the edges of the cheesecake, garnish with crushed Oreos, and top with mini Oreo cookies for a decorative touch.
Tips for a Perfectly Creamy No Bake Oreo Cheesecake
Ensure you’re using full-fat cream cheese and heavy cream with a fat content of at least 35%—this is crucial for the cheesecake to set properly. Light or low-fat alternatives will lead to a runnier texture that won’t hold up. If you want to add an extra layer of flavor, try mixing in a little melted chocolate into the filling before folding in the chopped Oreos.
Storing Your Cheesecake for Later
This No Bake Oreo Cheesecake can be stored in the fridge for up to five days, covered tightly with plastic wrap to keep it fresh. If you’d like to prepare it in advance, simply freeze the cheesecake (without the whipped cream topping) for up to two months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before decorating and serving.
