This No Bake Oreo Cheesecake is the ultimate cookies and cream dessert. With a crunchy Oreo crust and a creamy cheesecake filling, it’s so easy to make! You don’t even need to turn the oven on.
Hello Oreos đź’ś
Today we’re talking cheesecake. And Oreos. This gorgeous No Bake Oreo Cheesecake is literally filled to the brim with Oreo cookies.
It’s creamy, crunchy and oh-so-easy to make.
There’s no denying that I have a serious obsession with Oreos and Oreo desserts. Are you the same way?
I don’t know when it started but I do know that Oreos are my kryptonite. And this cheesecake 👇🏻 is NOT helping things.
It was only a couple of weeks ago that I shared my famous Chocolate Oreo Ice Cream Pie with you.
And now we’ve take all the goodness of Oreos and transformed them into a cheesecake. And you are going to flip when you find out just how easy this cheesecake is to make.
First things first, there’s NO gelatine. No siree.
I don’t like to use gelatine in my no bake cheesecakes because it alters the taste, makes an easy recipe somewhat complicated AND is simply not necessary.
I mean look, this cheesecake totally hold it’s shape, does it not?
So let’s talk flavour. This cheesecake is literally bursting with all things cookies and cream.
It starts with a buttery Oreo cookie crust, made with whole Oreos. Next, is a finger-lickin’ cheesecake filling made with cream cheese, thickened cream and a touch of sour cream (ALL the creams). And a boatload of chopped Oreos.
The final touch? Swirls of whipped cream, mini Oreo cookies and plenty of Oreo crumbs.
Tips for making the perfect no bake cheesecake
- Always use a springform tin so you can easily remove your cheesecake. Simply run a butter knife around the edge and then gently remove the cake rim when you’re ready to serve.
- Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature so you can beat it well and get rid of any lumps.
- Don’t use a cream cheese substitute or low fat version, go full fat cream cheese and full fat sour cream for maximum flavour.
- Beat your cheesecake mixture well so the mixture becomes thick and your cream is whipped.
- Let your cheesecake set in the fridge for at least 6 hours, or overnight. This recipe doesn’t have any gelatine but if you beat the mixture well, the whipped cream will easily allow the cheesecake to hold it’s shape.

I’ve been looking for a recipe without egg as I made this for my friend who is allergic to eggs!
Thanks for this
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Hi I made this cheesecake yesterday but for some reason it didn’t set. I even left it overnight in the fridge What could be the reason. But otherwise it was tasty
Hi, glad you enjoyed it but sorry to hear it didn’t set. It is most likely because you didn’t beat the mixture long enough for the cream to become ‘whipped’ as it’s the stablising ingredient in this cheesecake. Or if you didn’t use a ‘whipping’ cream. Hope that helps!
I definitely used whipping cream and did beat the mixture but I think it was stiff to start with and then as I was pouring the mixture it was slightly runny probably the reason it didn’t set.
Hi,
Do I need to put caster sugar?
Hi Isabelle, I recommend following the recipe as is if you can!
Amazing cheesecake. I doubled the Oreos inside the cake filling and it was perfect!

Wow! Love that Rebecca!
Hi. What can I use instead of sour cream?
Hi Poppy, you can use a thick Greek yogurt instead.
I made this for my son’s birthday but it’s still soft and not really set. I’ve followed instructions to a T and left overnight…..maybe the cream should have been whipping cream ?! Any tips?
Thanks
Hi Louise, sorry to hear it hasn’t set for you. The cream should be whipping cream – here in Australia that’s called thickened cream. I’m sorry if that wasn’t clear! Maybe pop it on the freezer for a bit before serving?
Hi, if I don’t have a baking tin can I use a tupperware instead? Thanks!
Hi Leez, I haven’t tried myself but it should be ok, just might be a little harder to remove!
I didn’t have a springform tin, but put two long strips of baking paper across the cake tin, overlapping the sides, line the bottom and sides with baking paper as well. Make cheese cake, which was easy and delicious, and when set, use the overlapping strips to remove cake from tin or container and place on plate to decorate. You’ll need two people. Was very successful for us.
So glad you enjoyed it Vicky!
Hi. What can I use to substitute the sour cream?
Hi Florence, the only real substitute I would recommend is Greek yogurt.
Hi
Do you remove the white cream part of the oreo to chop up and add to the mixture and for the base or does the whole biscuit, including the cream get used?
Hi Denise, the whole biscuit including the cream!
Hello
This recipe doesn’t need eggs?
Hi Hannah, no it doesn’t because it’s a no bake cheesecake – it doesn’t go in the oven. Hope you like it!
