Make this simple, chilled Oreo cheesecake that uses crushed cookies in the crust, filling, and topping. It is a quick and satisfying cookies and cream dessert perfect for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups Oreo cookie crumbs (about 25 cookies)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1 cup crushed Oreo cookies (for filling)
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional topping)
  • 1/2 cup whipped topping or whipped cream (for topping)
  • 8 whole Oreo cookies (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Mix the Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until fully combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Place the crust in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
  2. Beat the cream cheese: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sifted powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until fully incorporated and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  3. Whip the cream: In a separate, chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
  4. Fold together: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix and deflate the cream.
  5. Add Oreos: Fold in the 1 cup of crushed Oreo cookies into the cheesecake filling.
  6. Assemble: Spread the filling evenly over the chilled crust. Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap.
  7. Chill: Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until firm. This is a key step for a chilled cheesecake.
  8. Garnish and serve: Before serving, remove the sides of the springform pan. Top the cheesecake with whipped topping, mini chocolate chips, and whole Oreo cookies for decoration. Slice and serve this easy Oreo dessert.

Notes

  • For a richer chocolate flavor, use chocolate cream cheese instead of plain cream cheese in the filling.
  • If you prefer mini Oreo cheesecakes, press the crust into the bottom of lined muffin tins and chill for 4 hours before topping with filling.
  • This recipe is a great option for easy holiday desserts when you need to save oven space.
