No Bake Chocolate Oreo Cheesecake

This No Bake Chocolate Oreo Cheesecake is the perfect summer dessert for backyard barbecues, picnics, or just because it’s Tuesday. With creamy, rich chocoalte-y filling and tons of Oreos, you just can’t go wrong!

Oreos are a childhood favorite that many adults have grown up with. The whole, how do you eat them debate still goes strong. Do you dunk them in milk? Do you split them in half and lick the cream first? Or do you just put the whole thing in your mouth and enjoy it? Well, I say you eat them in the No Bake Cheesecake. That’s the NEW right way to eat an Oreo!

It almost looks like ice cream doesn’t it? Cream cheese, non-dairy whipped topping, sugar and cocoa. That’s really all that’s in that creamy filling. And Oreos of course, but that’s kinda obvious right?

That crust is so delicious, and it’s so easy to make that my 7 year old daughter made it! We have used the baking method on this crust and the no-bake, and they both have come out perfect, each with it’s own texture. So it’s up to you if you want to make it truly no bake, or get a crispier crust with a quick 8 minute bake. You can get the recipe and tips for how to make the crust from Dorothy at Crazy for Crust.

After cutting this slice for the photos I offered to share this piece with my kids. My son doesn’t like to share forks but he made an exception because he didn’t want to waste time and possibly lose out on a bite to his sister!

Like I mentioned, she made the crust all on her own; the only thing I did was operate the food processor.

I think she did a pretty great job and she was very proud of herself.

You can serve this No Bake Chocolate Oreo Cheesecake one of two ways; refrigerated, like you see here, or frozen. It freezes beautifully. You just need to let it sit out and thaw for about twenty minutes before slicing. Actually I guess there’s a third way – all in one sitting. One dish, one fork; saves on dishes and that’s a win in my book.
