Ingredients For Oreo No Bake Cheesecake
- Oreo Cookies: You’ll crush some into fine crumbs for the base, and chop some of the cookies to top the dessert.
- Butter: This helps bind the cookie base together.
- Cream Cheese: Softened. This gives the cheesecake its creamy texture.
- Sugar: Adds sweetness. You will use a bit for the base and the rest for the filling.
- Whipped Topping: Thawed. Adds a light and fluffy texture to the cake.
How to Make Oreo Dessert With Cream Cheese
Start by crushing some Oreo cookies. Crush some finely into crumbs and chop the rest a bit chunkier. Pop the butter in the microwave for around 30 seconds, then pour it into a big bowl. Mix in a touch of sugar and the finely crushed cookie crumbs.
Press this mixture into the bottom of a pan. In another bowl, beat the cream cheese with the remaining sugar until it's smooth, then fold in the whipped topping.
Spread the cream cheese mix evenly on top of the cookie layer in the pan. Then, just sprinkle the roughly chopped Oreo crumbs over it. Pop it in the fridge for at least an hour, and then it will be ready to enjoy!
This recipe is incredibly versatile. You can easily customize it by adding your favorite toppings like chocolate chips, caramel drizzle, or even fresh fruit.
Tips for Making Oreo Cream Cheese Dessert
Tip 1: To crush the cookies easily, use a food processor. A sealed plastic bag and rolling pin will also work.
Tip 2: Beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth before folding in the whipped topping. You want the filling to be lump-free.
Tip 3: Make sure to refrigerate the cheesecake for at least an hour before serving. This helps it set properly and makes it easier to slice.
FAQs For No Bake Cheesecake with Oreos
You can use any cookie you love. Graham crackers or chocolate chip cookies are great alternatives. You can even use gluten-free or vegan cookies, as long as they have a similar consistency to Oreos.
If you do use a different type of cookie, keep in mind their level of sweetness. If you're using a sweeter cookie, you may want to reduce the amount of sugar you add.
This recipe is perfect for making a day or two ahead. Just prepare as directed and refrigerate until you’re ready to serve. It will still taste fresh and delicious, making it a great option for busy schedules or last-minute gatherings.
This Oreo cheesecake stays fresh in the fridge for five days. Just cover it tightly with plastic wrap or pop it into an airtight container.
