Creamy and full of chocolatey Oreos, this No Bake Oreo Cheesecake is an amazing dessert to make in the Summer when you don't want to turn on the oven, or in the winter when you need a quick and easy dessert sitting in your refrigerator ready to be eaten!

What's In These Cheesecakes?
There are only six ingredients in this dessert, so it cones together pretty fast.
Oreos- Most important, we have Oreos! Oreos make up the crust of these cheesecakes as well as the cheesecake layer. I used regular Oreos, but you could use gluten free Oreos if you wanted or any of the other flavors they have out now.
Cream Cheese- Full fat cream cheese makes these cheesecakes stay together better. Don't use fat free or low fat cream cheese as they have a higher water content and the cheesecakes will not stay together as well. There is no egg in these so they don't have anything besides the fat from the dairy to keep them together.
Heavy Cream- Heavy cream is the other agent in these that keep them together. We will whip the heavy cream so it turns into whipped cream and holds the cheesecakes together.
You will need a muffin tin for this recipe and muffin liners. Here are some cute ones and there are tons more options for you on Amazon.
How Do We Make These Cheesecakes?
First, grab a pack of Oreos. Take 24 of them and add them to a food processor. Process them for 1-2 minutes until the Oreos have turned to crumbs. Take out a ½ cup of the Oreo crumbs and set them aside. In the meantime, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in the microwave. When the Oreos have all turned to crumbs, add the butter to the food processor and process for another minutes. The crumbs should look like wet sand.
Add the muffin liners to the muffin tin. Take a spoonful of the crumbs and add it to the bottom of each muffin tin. Use the back of an ice cream scoop or spoon to pack the crumbs down. You want the crumbs to be packed well into the muffin liners. Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator while we make the cream cheese filling.
In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, place the block of cream cheese. Beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer if you are not using a stand mixer. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Add ¼ cup of heavy cream and vanilla and beat on high for 2 minutes. Add the rest of the heavy cream and beat for another 2 minutes.
After all the heavy cream is added, add the reserved Oreos and gently mix them into the cream cheese mixture with a spoon. Spoon the cream cheese filling into each of the prepared muffin liners. Cover the muffin tin with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours or overnight to allow the cream cheese to set. Serve with whipped cream or more Oreos.
Frequently Asked Questions
Definitely! If you wanted to do that I might add a few more Oreos to the crust base to bulk it up. When you are making a full pie you don't want to skimp on the crust. A full pie would be a great idea!
I would not recommend making these without the liners. I think they would stick to the pan and would be hard to get out. Muffin liners help them keep their shape and there are so many different and fun types of liners out there, you can change it up for every different occasion!
Absolutely! If you wanted to make this no bake cheesecake recipe but without Oreos, substitute graham crackers for the Oreos in the base. Don't put Oreos in the cheesecake portion and either leave it plain or add whatever you favorite filling would be. Sprinkles, M&Ms, or caramel sauce to name a few! The possibilities are endless!
