Ingredients For No Bake Oreo Cheesecake
For the crust of this Oreo Cheesecake, you’ll need Oreos, melted butter, and salt (optional). I find getting a party-size package of Oreos gives me just what I need for the crust and filling with leftovers to add to the top!
The crust then gets covered with rich homemade Oreo cheesecake filling! This is made using full-fat cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, salt, cool whip, and crushed Oreos.
Once the filling has made its way into the crust you can whip up that chocolaty smooth ganache by whisking together warmed semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy whipping cream. This topping is an optional step but one that really takes this delicious Oreo cheesecake to the next level!
Top with whipped cream and more crushed Oreos before serving!
How To Make No Bake Oreo Cheesecake
- Pulse Oreos in the food processor until fine crumbs form then add in the melted butter and salt. Pulse again to combine.
- Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 10-inch springform pan.
- Cream together the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and salt until light and fluffy using a stand mixer or electric mixer.
- Fold in the cool whip and crushed Oreos then mix until combined. The filling will have a grayish tint to it.
- Spread the filling out onto the oreo cookie crust evenly and gently.
- Add the heavy cream and chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 45 seconds.
- Whisk together the ganache and microwave an additional 15 seconds, if needed, for the chocolate to fully melt. Let sit for 15 minutes.
- Pour the cooled ganache over the top of the cheesecake. Then refrigerate before slicing and serving.
- Top with whipped topping and Oreos, if desired!

How Can I Add More Cookie Flavor To This Recipe?
If you prefer a strong cookie flavor just add up to 5 additional Oreos when you’re making the cheesecake filling!
Why Does The Crust Call For Salt?
Adding salt to the Oreo crust really balances out the sweetness while also adding lots of flavor! Feel free to leave the salt out if you’d like.
Do I Have To Bring The Crust Up The Sides Of The Cheesecake?
Not at all, if you prefer a crust that doesn’t go all the way up the sides you can simply reduce the crust! To do so reduce to 20 Oreos, 4 tablespoons butter, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt then just press the crust mixture into the bottom of the pan.

Steps
Add the 28 Oreos for the crust to a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Add in the melted butter and salt and pulse until combined.
Transfer the crust mixture to a 10-inch springform pan and press evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. I find that a flat bottomed and sided drinking glass helps with this.
In a large bowl or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and salt until light and fluffy.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl and fold in the cool whip followed by the crushed Oreos and mix until combined and hardly any white streaks remain. The mixture will have a grayish tint to it.
Transfer the filling to the crust and spread out evenly and gently.
Add the chocolate chips and heavy cream to a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 45 seconds, whisk together the ganache, microwaving for an additional 15 seconds, if needed for the chocolate to fully melt. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Pour the cooled ganache over the top of the cheesecake filling then refrigerate for at least 6 hours before slicing and serving.
Top with whipped cream and Oreos for garnish, if desired.
Notes
- Up to 5 additional Oreos can be added to the filling if you want a stronger cookie flavor in the filling.
- If you prefer a crust that doesn’t go all the way up the sides of the cheesecake you can reduce the crust to 20 Oreos, 4 tablespoons butter, and ¼ teaspoon salt and just press it into the bottom of the pan.
- To make it in a 9-inch pie dish, use the crust ratio just mentioned above and cut the filling ingredients in half (using 7 to 10 Oreos in the filling). Ganache measurements would stay the same.
- Store in the refrigerator in an air-tight container for up to 3 days. The crust will soften quite a bit after the first 36 hours.
- I like to add salt to my Oreo crusts because I really think it cuts the sweetness but also adds a lot of flavor, but it’s completely optional.
- Only full-fat cream cheese should be used in this recipe.
