Oreo Cookies and Cream No-Bake Cheesecake ~ An adult dessert gets some kid lov’n with an Oreo crush.
Oreo Cookie and Cream No-Bake Cheesecake
What kid doesn’t love Oreos, right? But not every kid likes cheesecake. Please tell me I am not the only one that acquired a taste for cheesecake through the years.
In fact, I think my first bite of cheesecake was at a Cheesecake Factory when I was in high school. But maybe that had more to do with my parents being very strict, old world Asians. They convinced my siblings and me that American restaurants were for Americans, along with other weird ideas like makeup was to be worn when I was 30-something and boyfriends were had after college graduation. And by that I mean after I became a doctor.
Yeah, so much for parental influence. Eventually we westernized my dad but never my mom. She’s still wondering which cult abducted me every night and returned me to my bed before the sun rose.
My sweet tooth and baking obsession as attributed by her is an American influence that she hopes to wash away with fish sauce.
Uh, good luck! I’ve entered Willy Wonka’s world and I never want to leave.
I love this latest creation to come out of my Wonka factory: Oreo Cookies and Cream No-Bake Cheesecake. Seriously, one of my easiest desserts ever—ten minute prep, throw it in the fridge to set, and enjoy childhood bliss with every Oreo filled cheesecake bite.
A few notes:
- I made these as Mini Oreo Cookies and Cream Cheesecake, but the recipe will work just as well in a 9 inch cheesecake pan or springform.
- If you do not have vanilla powder you can omit it. I don’t recommend vanilla extract or it will end up coloring your cheesecake with a slight brownish color.
- For best results refrigerate overnight.
- Keep refrigerated up until 20 minutes before serving.
- Other no-bake cheesecakes you may like White Chocolate Tuxedo Cheesecake and SoNo’s No-Bake Cheesecake.
Oreo Cookies and Cream No-Bake Cheesecake
Makes 16 mini 2 inch cheesecakes or one 8 inch cheesecake.
Crust
1 1/2 cup crushed graham cracker
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
7 tablespoon unsalted butter(melted)
1. Combine graham cracker crumbs with sugar.
2. Add melted butter and blend until combined.
3. Press into pan. Set aside.
Cheesecake
2 ¼ cups heavy cream
1 pound cream cheese, softened
2/3 cup sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoon vanilla powder
¾ cups Oreo Cookies, crushed
Instructions:
1. Beat heavy cream until medium peaks form. Set aside.
2. Add cream cheese, sugar, salt, vanilla powder, lemon juice to a bowl and beat with a paddle attachment until smooth (approximately 3-5 mins). If you do not have a stand mixer or a paddle attachment a hand beater will work as well, but will take twice as long to achieve a smooth consistency.
3. Add cream cheese mixture to heavy cream and beat until incorporated.
4. Gently fold in Oreo cookies.
5. Fill chosen pan with a slight mound at the center, as the cheesecake will become slightly sunken at the center.
6. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours to set or overnight for best results.
7. Remove from refrigerator and smooth top to level with edges. Serve with whipping cream and garnish with mini Oreos.

These look SO delicious. I’ve not had much success with cutting round servings of cheesecake…do you have any tips & tricks? I’d LOVE some advice!
two questions –
1- what recipe did you use for your crusts?
2- how much vanilla extract would you use if you have clear vanilla extract (I have it for making icing, but sometimes use it in baking when I run out of the brown stuff)
I am totally makign this recipe this week, its just what the doctor ordered.
Hi Angela and Jessica,
Chicago Metallic’s Mini Cheesecake Pan with Removable Bottoms http://amzn.to/awKqEW Once the cheesecake has set and you remove it. Use an off-set spatula to smooth out the top and sides.
As for the vanilla extract use 1 1/2 teapsoons.
Thanks,
naomi
Do you just make a regular graham cracker crust?
These look amazing. I love your presentation, absolutely beautiful. What type of pan did you make these in since they are so small? I love Oreos, so I’m going to have to try this recipe!

These look positively majestic! I have always meant to do cheesecake but not got round to it yet, with Oreos sounds to die for.

I’m not sure if my kids would like this one or not, but they’d be willing to give it a try with all those oreo pieces in there. No worries if they didn’t like it – more for me!
these are GORGEOUS! yum, yum!

So cute, I have some oreos sitting in the cupboard just waiting to be transformed. I’d bought them to make ice cream.
Now do I make cheesecake or ice cream, ummm?

Oh my goodness! These little cheesecake look amazing! I’m surprised that you used a graham cracker crust instead of an Oreo crust. Anyway, it looks fantastic. I, too, didn’t acquire a taste for cheesecake until I was much older.
I’ve always been a cheesecake lover but it’s only recently that I’ve started to like less sweet, more adult flavored cheesecakes. And savory cheesecakes have been rocking my world as well.
There’s always room for Oreo flavored anything in my life though. And I love that these are no-bake!

I’ve never been big on cheesecakes other than the ones my mum made while I was growing up but these look so delicious you’ve got me wanting a taste!

Beautifully done. You’re presentation is simple yet elegant. They are perfect size and color. I’m new to your blog and am loving every post. I’ll be back for sure!

So this was so beautiful, I just had to try it
Since we are such Oreo fans, we took it one giant Oreo step further and made the crust an Oreo crust in the place of the graham cracker crust. Thank you so much for sharing. Simply delightful!
Simply beautiful and I bet they taste just as good as they look.

[...] to try this one again. Needless to say, without the lime juice. Here is the link to the recipe : http://www.bakersroyale.com/cheesecake/oreo-cookies-and-cream-no-bake-cheesecake/ Despite my somewhat failed attempt, please try it and tell me how yours turned out! July [...]
Hi Country Girl,
The lime juice shouldn’t have made a huge difference, let me know where it failed and I can help correct it.
Thanks for reading and giving it a go.

[...] like the picture. That’s why we are taking the easy route with a no-bake recipe. Fail proof Oreo Cookies and Cream No Bake Cheesecake. [...]
just wondering if i use this recipe can i still bake it?
Is there a recipe for the baked version of this?
I would not use this as a bake version. There are many baked Oreo versions, but I don’t have one as I’ve yet to try it that way.
