Ingredients
Scale
- 24 Oreo cookies (about 300g / 10.5 oz) – crushed finely for a firm base
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (about 70g / 2.5 oz)
- 16 ounces (450g / 1 lb) cream cheese, softened – full-fat for best creaminess
- 1 cup (240ml / 8 fl oz) heavy whipping cream, cold – whipped to soft peaks
- ¾ cup (90g / 3.2 oz) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 10 Oreo cookies, chopped roughly – folded into the filling for texture
Instructions
- Crush 24 Oreo cookies until fine crumbs form (about 2 ½ cups). Use a food processor or place them in a sealed bag and roll with a rolling pin.
- Mix the crumbs with 5 tablespoons melted unsalted butter until fully combined.
- Pour the crumb mixture into a 9-inch (23cm) springform pan. Press evenly and firmly into the base. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
- In a chilled bowl, beat 1 cup cold heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Avoid over-whipping.
- In a separate large bowl, beat 16 ounces softened cream cheese with ¾ cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a rubber spatula, then fold in 10 roughly chopped Oreo cookies.
- Pour the filling over the chilled crust, smoothing the top. Tap the pan gently to release air bubbles.
- Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to set firmly.
- Before serving, run a thin knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cheesecake. Remove the springform ring and slice carefully.
- Optional: Garnish with extra Oreo crumbs or whipped cream.
Notes
Use full-fat cream cheese for best texture. Chill crust before adding filling to prevent sogginess. Whip cream only to soft peaks to avoid grainy texture. Use a warm knife dipped in hot water for clean slices. For gluten-free, substitute Oreos with gluten-free chocolate sandwich cookies. Dairy-free options include vegan cream cheese and coconut cream but texture may vary.
