Why you’ll love this Easy Oreo Cheesecake recipe
⭐️ Easy no-bake method that you can make ahead ⭐️ Show stopping dessert for special occasion ⭐️ Super easy and foolproof recipe It appeared in my Instagram Stories that day and SO many people asked for the recipe. I selflessly made it again to photograph it for you (and eat it – it’s a hard job!) I find, like with my other cheesecake recipes, that making this kind of dessert is ideal for when you want something a bit special and impressive. But shhh… you don’t have to tell everyone how easy it is!

Butter – Unsalted is best if you have it. You can melt it quickly in a mug in the microwave Oreo cookies – These crush up well
Oreo Cheesecake filling:
Oreos – You’ll need to crush these up finely Double cream – See tips below on the required whipping consistency Cream cheese – I like to use Philadelphia. You can use other brands but I find they are slightly more difficult to combine. Always use full fat and drain before use
To decorate:
Dark chocolate – Melted Mini Oreos – You’ll need about 3 mini bags
Hint: See below for tips on removing the cheesecake from the tin. You can store the cheesecake in the fridge (without the topping) for a MINIMUM of 3 hours and up to 3 days from preparation. The results will be much better if it’s had time to chill overnight. Leave it in the tin in the fridge and cover with a dinner plate of cling film (but make sure it doesn’t touch the surface of your beautiful cheesecake!) Can Oreo Cheesecake be frozen? You can also put the undecorated cheesecake in the freezer in the tin if you want to make it further in advance. Just make sure you defrost it properly in the fridge (again, in the tin) for 24 hours or until completely thawed, then decorate. You’re aiming for the cheesecake to have a consistency that is sliceable but not totally solid, gives a little quiver but not an all-out wobble. Get all that?! The trick is to add your topping after it’s had time to set, so not long before you serve is ideal. Melt your chocolate and allow it to cool a bit, as this will stop it from melting the cheesecake and you’ll get cleaner lines without spreading. Then pipe on your remaining whipped cream and pop your mini Oreos on top. For this job, I use these disposable piping bags. (I know these are not great for the environment, but using reusable bags takes so much detergent to get them clean, I’m honestly not sure of the best option. You can make a simple little bag from baking paper but they are a little more tricky to handle.) I use a food processor because it helps get that nice, fine consistency. If you’d prefer to do it by hand, just put the biscuits in a food bag, seal the top, then bash with a rolling pin or something fairly heavy to get the fine crumble. The recipe is for a 7″ tin which is also DEEP (not a standard sandwich cake tin, it will overflow!) You can use smaller or larger but your cheesecake will obviously be taller or shorter. I would DEFINITELY recommend this tin as it is a great size and very easy to use. Also I’d LOVE to see your cooking creations.
