A quick and easy no-bake Oreo cheesecake with a creamy cookie crust that is rich, indulgent, and perfect for any occasion. This recipe requires no oven and comes together in under 20 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 24 Oreo cookies, finely crushed (about 2 cups)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
  • 16 ounces (450g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 3/4 cup (90g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 12 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. Combine the finely crushed Oreo cookies with melted butter and granulated sugar in a medium bowl. Mix until all crumbs are evenly coated and hold together when pressed.
  2. Transfer the mixture into the bottom of the 9-inch springform pan. Press the crust firmly and evenly using the back of a spoon or flat-bottomed glass. Chill in the fridge for 15 minutes to set.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  4. Gradually add sifted powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Continue mixing until fully incorporated and silky smooth.
  5. In a separate chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy cream on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3 to 5 minutes. Be careful not to overwhip.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula to keep the filling light and airy.
  7. Fold the roughly chopped Oreo pieces into the filling, distributing evenly without overmixing.
  8. Spoon the filling over the chilled cookie crust in the springform pan. Spread evenly and smooth the top.
  9. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to let the cheesecake set.
  10. Before serving, run a knife along the edges of the pan to loosen the cheesecake, then release the springform side. Slice with a clean, sharp knife wiped between cuts.

Notes

Soften cream cheese at room temperature or microwave in short bursts to avoid lumps. Chill mixing bowl and beaters for whipping cream to achieve stiff peaks faster. Use gentle folding to keep filling airy. Do not pulverize Oreos into powder; keep some texture for crunch. Chill cheesecake at least 4 hours or overnight for best results. Use a serrated knife warmed under hot water for clean slicing.
