A quick and easy no-bake dessert featuring layers of crushed Oreo cookies and creamy cheesecake filling, perfect for any occasion and ready in under 20 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • About 24 Oreo Cookies, crushed finely
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 ounces (225 grams) cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup (90 grams) powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • Optional: Mini Oreo pieces for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place about 20 Oreo cookies into a food processor and pulse until finely crushed. Alternatively, crush cookies in a sealed plastic bag with a rolling pin until fine but slightly crumbly. Transfer crumbs to a bowl.
  2. Pour 5 tablespoons (70 grams) of melted unsalted butter into the crushed Oreos and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Adjust butter if too dry.
  3. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the Oreo crust into each serving cup and press down firmly to create a compact base. Chill in the fridge for about 10 minutes.
  4. In a mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces (225 grams) of softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gradually add 3/4 cup (90 grams) powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
  6. In a separate chilled bowl, whip 1 cup (240 ml) of cold heavy cream to soft peaks.
  7. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula, folding slowly to keep the texture airy.
  8. Spoon or pipe a generous layer of cheesecake filling over the Oreo crust in each cup. Top with crushed mini Oreos or cookie crumbs for garnish.
  9. Refrigerate the filled cups for at least 2 hours, preferably 4, to let the flavors meld and the filling firm up.
  10. Serve chilled, optionally with a dollop of fresh whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

Notes

Use full-fat cream cheese and freshly whipped cream for best texture. Soften cream cheese before mixing to avoid lumps. Fold whipped cream gently to keep filling airy. Chill at least 2 hours, overnight preferred. For dairy-free, substitute cream cheese and heavy cream with vegan alternatives. For gluten-free, use gluten-free sandwich cookies or almond flour crust.
