Ingredients:
Crust:
24 Oreo cookies, crushed
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Filling:
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
15 Oreo cookies, crushed (for filling)
1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
Topping (Optional):
Additional whipped cream
Extra Oreo cookies for garnish
Directions:
Prepare the Oreo Crust:
In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are well-coated and resemble wet sand.
Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even layer. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
Make the Cheesecake Filling:
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, mixing until well-combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Then, fold in the crushed Oreos.
Assemble the Cheesecake:
Pour the Oreo cheesecake filling over the prepared crust, spreading it into an even layer with a spatula.
Cover the cheesecake and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
Garnish and Serve:
Before serving, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Garnish with additional whipped cream and Oreo cookies if desired.
Slice and serve your delicious no-bake Oreo cheesecake!
Serving Tips:
Chill Thoroughly: For the best texture, allow the cheesecake to chill for at least 4 hours or, ideally, overnight. This helps the filling firm up, making it easier to slice and serve.
Use a Warm Knife: To get clean, neat slices, run a sharp knife under hot water, dry it, and then slice. Wipe the knife between each cut to keep the slices tidy.
Top Just Before Serving: If you plan to add whipped cream, extra Oreos, or other toppings, do so just before serving to keep everything fresh and crisp.
Storage Tips:
In the Refrigerator: Cover the cheesecake tightly with plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
In the Freezer: To freeze, slice the cheesecake into individual servings and wrap each slice in plastic wrap. Place the wrapped slices in a freezer-safe container or a resealable freezer bag. Frozen cheesecake can be stored for up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight before serving.

FAQs:
Can I use a different type of cookie for the crust?
Yes! While Oreos create a classic chocolatey crust, you can substitute graham crackers, chocolate graham crackers, or any chocolate sandwich cookie for a different flavor.
How long does the cheesecake need to chill?

Can I make this cheesecake ahead of time?
Absolutely! This no-bake cheesecake is perfect for preparing a day in advance. Just cover it well and keep it in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Can I freeze leftover cheesecake?
Yes, you can freeze it! Slice the cheesecake, wrap each slice in plastic wrap, and store it in a freezer-safe container or resealable bag. It will keep in the freezer for up to 1 month.
