These no-bake Oreo cheesecake bars combine the classic Oreo crunch with creamy cheesecake filling for an easy, indulgent dessert that requires no oven.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 24 Oreo cookies, finely crushed (original or double-stuff)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 ounces (450g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 3/4 cup (90g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 10 Oreo cookies, coarsely chopped or crushed

Instructions

  1. Combine the finely crushed 24 Oreos with the melted butter in a bowl. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
  2. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8×8 inch pan, creating an even layer. Use the back of a spoon or a flat-bottomed glass to compact it well. Place the pan in the fridge to chill while you make the filling.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  4. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Continue beating until the mixture is silky and well combined.
  5. In a separate cold bowl, beat the chilled heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes on high speed.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula, preserving as much airiness as possible.
  7. Fold in the coarsely chopped 10 Oreos for texture.
  8. Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
  9. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
  10. Once set, cut into 12 bars and serve chilled. Use a sharp knife wiped clean between cuts for neat slices.

Notes

Let cream cheese soften at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to avoid lumps. Use a warm knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry to cut bars cleanly. Chilling overnight improves texture and flavor. For vegan or dairy-free versions, substitute dairy-free cream cheese and coconut cream. Gluten-free Oreos can be used for gluten-free diet.
