Ingredients
Crust:
- 28 Oreos
- 6 tablespoons salted butter melted
- ½ teaspoon salt optional
Filling
- 16 ounces cream cheese full fat only
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 16 ounces cool whip thawed
- 15 Oreos crushed
Ganache (optional)
- ⅔ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup heavy cream
Topping
Instructions
- 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
- Nutritional value does not include the toppings.
- This does have to chill for about 6 hours for the filling to set up.
- You can make this in a pie plate instead of a springform pan, see my tips above.
- Increase or decrease your Oreos in the filling to your flavor preference.
- The ganache is optional but highly recommended.
- Switch up your Oreos for a different color or flavor.
- Achieve fine Oreo crumbs with a food processor for a smooth crust.
- Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for that perfectly creamy filling.
- Fold in the Cool Whip gently with a rubber spatula to keep the mixture light and fluffy.
- For easy removal, a springform pan is your best friend. That’s probably the hardest part of this whole thing, haha!
- A bit of hot water on your knife will help you slice through the cheesecake cleanly.
- Get creative with toppings – this is your chance to make the cheesecake uniquely yours.
