Summers belong to the easy, classic no-bake cheesecake! Or at least around here, they do. They are so simple, easy, and the fact that no oven is required makes it the perfect hot-weather dessert.
I threw together this no-bake cake batter cheesecake last year using golden Oreos and almost forgot how divine it was. This demanded that I post a no-bake oreo cheesecake to add to the club. I mean, it’s only fair, right?
Out of all the no-bake cheesecakes I’ve made, I’m gonna have to say Oreo is my fav!!! You just can’t beat this combination of cookies and cream baby! And it’s always a crowd-pleaser.
I got this recipe off the back of a box of crushed Oreos (do they still sell those?) and it’s a keeper for sure! No tweaks and twerks needed.
It’s creamy, fluffy, sweet, and full of that true cookie and cream flavor. If you ever get stumped on what kind of dessert to make for a cookout, this is it! I can pretty much count on not having leftovers which is a good thing because I’d eat this whole cheesecake if I’m left alone with it long enough (and I don’t need long).
Now if you’re not a fan of the ingredients in Oreo cookies then you can always opt for another brand of chocolate sandwich cookies like Newman O’s or Back to Nature. The cool whip can be replaced with homemade whipping cream or TruWhip.
There are also organic brands of cream cheese and even a really great non-dairy cream cheese called “Better Than Cream Cheese” which is amazing! So there, now you have no reason not to make this sinfully delicious no-bake Oreo cheesecake!! Yayy we can both have matching muffin tops by the end of summer! Aren’t I a good foodie friend? You’re welcome. Love you.
Watch me make this Oreo No-bake Cheesecake from start to finish!

Notes
For a soft set pie, store in the fridge. For a hard-set pie with the texture of ice cream store in the freezer and let soften a little at room tempt. when ready to serve.
Would i be able to substitute the whip cream if i dont have any? (Or any heavy cream). Thanks:)!
This no bake recipe is sooooooo good! I made it for a holiday a couple years back and it was a hit. The family now expect it. They totally don’t know that I did not slave in the kitchen! Thanks Monique, girl, your recipes have never failed me! Merry Christmas everyone.
If I make this on a Wednesday, will it still be good to serve on Sunday ?
Yes, I suggest storing it in the freezer.
Hi! Whats the size of the pie plate?? Thank you!!
Can i do it without cool whip? N just the rest
Can I don’t use the cool whip?
Hi can I use sour cream instead of cool whip?
Hi Marey, I am unsure of how the results would turn out if the cool whip was substituted with sour cream. Being that cool whip is made with heavy cream which when beated to a peak expands and is light, airy and fluffy- sour cream which may appear similar in texture actually is not synonymous. My guess is that the substitution would not yield the same result causing the filling to be dense.
If you try the subsitution, please post a review to let us know how it turned out.
Happy baking!
Hey there is the cream cheese 16 oz in total or 8 oz.
Thanks
Hi Amy, are correct. The recipe calls for a total of 16 ounces of cream cheese which equals two 8 ounce block of cream cheese.
Absolutely amazing! I made this for Thanksgiving and everyone enjoyed it (based on it being one of the first Dee desserts to go) . I was pleased to sample one of the last pieces of this pie. Let’s just say that I was in paradise! I kept the last piece to myself 🙂 I enjoyed every calorie.
Made this for my birthday and loved it! I don’t have a food processor so I put my cookies in a large ziploc bag and used a rolling pin to smush them.
My only dislike was that it is very very difficult to cut through the cookie bottom with a knife or fork. Not sure how to get around this by making a softer bottom.
This Oreo-No-Bake Cheesecake was a hit at my inlaw’s gathering! I do not usually bake or cook as a lot of my inlaws are very good cooks and so it can be very intimidating. I followed your recipe and it was very easy! I did not have an electric whisk available so I had to whisk the filling manually, it took some effort, but overall it turned out wonderful! Luckily I made two as the first one went away so quick! Thank you for this recipe!:)
I just made this and it is delicious! I made a white chocolate cheesecake not too long ago and it barely had any taste to it. This cheesecake was flavorful and I know my family will enjoy it tomorrow.
Thanks and God Bless!
Can I use Whipping Cream instead of Cool Whip? Do I need to whip the Whipping Cream before adding it to the mixture or just add it in as liquid straight from the bottle?
Must try! I’ll be making it soon. When I get fit, this would be a luscious reward!
Thanks for sharing the recipe,
Thanks for sharing the recipe, it looks moist and delicious!
The whole family really enjoyed this. It makes you want to lick the plate.
oreo cheesecake was soo soo good . My son said it was amazing. Definitely will be making it again. Thank you so much
I thank God for this. Now a brother can cook!
This recipe sounds great and quick. Just a note, the step to add chopped cookies to batter is left out. I love your recipes because you use non-pork options. If you’re one that don’t eat it at all there’s a few less obvious ingredients that are still present you maybe surprised about.
