👩‍🍳 How to Make No Bake Oreo Cheesecake

These step-by-step instructions are accompanied by detailed photos for enhanced clarity and guidance.

Step 1. Soften the Cream Cheese

Take the eight ounces of cream cheese out of the refrigerator and set it on the countertop at room temperature so it can soften. This should only take about 10 minutes.

Also, take the container of whipped topping out of the freezer and put it in the refrigerator for now.

Step 2. Prepare the Homemade Whipped Cream

In a large mixing bowl, add 1 and 1/2 cups of heavy whipping cream together with 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Step 3. Beat the Whipping Cream Mixture

Using a hand-held electric mixer, or stand mixer on high speed, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft yet stiff peaks form. This should take about three to four minutes. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl. After that, place the bowl of whipped cream in the refrigerator for now.

Step 4. Put the Oreo Cookies in a Ziplock Bag

Then, place 18 Oreo cookies in a ziplock bag. Release most of the air in the bag, leaving just a little, before zipping it up. If you don’t have any ziplock bags, no problem. You can put the cookies in a large bowl and then continue to the next step.

Step 5. Break up the Oreo Cookies

Smash the Oreo cookies in the ziplock bag into Oreo cookie crumbs. You can make Oreo crumbs a couple of ways.

  • One way is using a rolling pin. Just roll the rolling pin back and forth over the ziplock bag a few times.
  • Or you can put the cookies in a large bowl, then crush the cookies using the back side of a sturdy spoon. This may be a little harder to do, but it is doable. It is okay if you end up with a few Oreo chunks.
  • You can break up the Oreos by laying the ziplock bag on the countertop, then applying pressure with the palms of your hands on the ziplock bag, or just squeezing the bag.
  • You can apply pressure using the bottom of a cup or roll a can of corn or green beans or a hard object over the bag.

Using the rolling pin is the easiest way though. After you are done breaking up the cookies, set them aside for now.

Note: Do not smash the cookies up too much. You want a few fine crumbs, along with a few chunks of Oreo cookies in the bag too.

Step 6. Combine the Cream Cheese and Powdered Sugar

In a separate bowl, put eight ounces of softened cream cheese together with 1/2 cup of powdered sugar.

Step 7. Beat the Cream Cheese and Powdered Sugar

Again, with a hand-held electric mixer or a stand mixer, beat the cream cheese together with the powdered sugar into a cream cheese mixture. This will take only a couple of minutes until it is nice and smooth.

Step 8. Add the Whipped Topping and Oreo Crumbs

Take the whipped topping out of the refrigerator and add it together with the cream cheese mixture. Then, add the crumbled Oreo cookie crumbs to the bowl.

Note: You can add the Oreo cookies in the next step instead of now if you prefer to use an electric mixer to thoroughly blend the whipped topping and cream cheese mixture. We used a spatula.

Step 9. Mix Up the Oreo Filling

Use a spoon or spatula to stir the cream cheese mixture together with the whipped topping and Oreo cookie crumbs. Blend them into a creamy Oreo filling, but be careful not to break up the Oreo cookies any more than they already are.

Note: This step is where you can use an electric mixer if you prefer to do so, to blend the cream cheese mixture and whipped topping together before adding the Oreo cookies.

Step 10. Fill the Oreo Pie Crust

Spread the Oreo filling evenly into the ready-made Oreo pie crust. By the time you get all of the Oreo filling into the pie crust, it should be slightly above the rim of the aluminum pie plate.

Step 11. Spread the Homemade Whipped Cream on Top of the Cheesecake

🔪 Recipe Variations

  • Sprinkle bits of chocolate pieces or white chocolate pieces over the top of the Oreo cheesecake.
  • Make a pastry pie crust from scratch or buy a ready-made one from the store if you don’t want to use the Oreo pie crust.
  • Change out the Oreo cookies and use your favorite cookie instead.
  • Make the Oreo pie crust from scratch instead of buying the ready-made one from the store. Use a 9-inch pie plate or springform pan. The Oreo crust consists of 1/4 cup of melted butter and one package of Oreo cookies made into crumbs. You want the melted butter and crushed Oreo cookies to stick together. Using your fingers, press the Oreo mixture evenly into the pie plate or springform pan and up the sides just a bit. That’s it.

Tip: If you decide to use a springform pan, take it apart. Overlap a piece of parchment paper on the bottom part of the pan. Then put the pan back together again and snap the side buckle shut. Cut away the excess parchment paper.

❓ FAQs

How Do I Store No Bake Oreo Cheesecake?

Oreo cheesecake must be kept in the refrigerator or the whipped cream and whipped topping will become a semi-liquid mess, in other words, melt. Put the Oreo cheesecake in a container with a lid on it if you can. Do not use plastic wrap to cover the top of the Oreo cheesecake. The plastic wrap will stick to the whipped cream. If you don’t have a container big enough with a lid on it, you can use aluminum foil. Just make sure the foil isn’t pressed up against the whipped cream.

Can I Freeze No Bake Oreo Cheesecake?

Yes, you can freeze the entire cheesecake for at least 3 or 4 months. But first, put it in a freezer-safe airtight container, or better yet, cut individual slices and put them in freezer-safe airtight containers, then when you want a slice or two of Oreo cheesecake, you can take out only what you need when you are ready to do so.
