A Trip Down Memory Lane 🍰❤️
Growing up, birthdays and family gatherings were always special for me (mostly because of dessert, let’s be honest). But there was one dessert that consistently held a special spot at our celebrations—my mom’s famous no bake Oreo cheesecake. I remember vividly how guests would pile into our modest kitchen, eyes wide open as mom carefully brought it out from the fridge. Every bite would be followed by grateful sighs, oohs, and ahhs. My mom would smile proudly, delighting in our reactions every time.
As I got older, this tried-and-true cheesecake recipe was one of the first desserts she taught me. It not only connected me to wonderful memories of family and occasions celebrated, but now, as a professional chef, it’s one of my go-to desserts when something delicious, quick, and foolproof is needed.

✨ Ingredients You’ll Need (Serves 12–14)
For the Oreo Crust:
– 36 Oreos
– ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
Cheesecake Filling:
– 24 oz cream cheese, room temperature (the softer, the easier to blend!)
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
– 1⅓ cups heavy whipping cream
– ¾ cup powdered sugar
– Oreo crumbs from 18 Oreos (about 1½ cups; reserve 1 Tbsp crumbs for garnish)
– 10 whole Oreos, roughly chopped
Decoration:
– ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
– ⅓ cup powdered sugar
– ½ tsp vanilla extract
– 1–2 Tbsp Oreo crumbs
– 6 Oreos, cut in half
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Directions (Super Easy!)
Step 1: Prepare the Crust
– Line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it just to avoid sticking.
– Place Oreos (cream and all!) into a food processor and crush them into super-fine crumbs. No processor? Pop your Oreos into a gallon zip-lock bag and use a rolling pin to get perfect crumbs!
– Mix your Oreo crumbs with the melted butter until evenly coated.
– Press firmly into your springform pan, going up about an inch along the sides. Pop into the fridge to set while you prepare that dreamy filling!
Step 2: Whip Up the Cheesecake Filling
– In a big mixing bowl, whip heavy whipping cream until it just starts forming soft peaks. Add powdered sugar, and continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Be patient—your cheesecake will thank you!
– In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese with granulated sugar and vanilla extract until it’s wonderfully smooth and creamy.
– Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture for irresistible lightness. Be careful not to overmix—gentle, loving folds do the trick!
– Fold in those gorgeous Oreo crumbs and chopped Oreos. Trust me—this is cheesecake gold!
Step 3: Assemble and Chill
– Pour your luscious cheesecake mixture onto the chilled Oreo crust. Smooth it out with a spatula—because pretty cheesecake tastes even better!
– Chill your cheesecake masterpiece in the fridge for at least five to six hours—overnight is even better to really set this beauty.
Step 4: Beautiful Decoration (Let’s Get Fancy!)
– Once your cheesecake is nicely set, whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla into fluffy, whipped goodness.
– Remove the springform sides carefully, and transfer cake onto serving plate.
– Pipe the whipped cream along cheesecake edges (your inner pastry-chef will love this!). Decorate decadently with Oreo halves and sprinkle extra Oreo crumbs for the perfect wow factor.
And voila! You’ve made your very own insanely delicious No Bake Oreo Cheesecake!
🍽️ Serving Suggestions:
– Serve your cheesecake slices chilled with a glass of cold milk (heavenly!) or a warm mug of coffee.
– Top slices with fresh berries for an extra fruity twist.
– For extra indulgence, drizzle plates lightly with chocolate syrup or caramel before plating each slice.
💡 Pro Tips From Your Chef Friend:
– Always use full-fat cream cheese—your cheesecake depends on it for creamy texture!
– Let your cream cheese sit out for at least 30 minutes before you start mixing—it’ll blend more easily.
– Ensure you chill your cheesecake long enough—overnight chilling guarantees perfect slices!
– Use a sharp knife, dipping it in hot water between slices, and wiping clean each time, for perfect cuts!
