How To Make No Bake Oreo Cheesecake

Because this no-bake cheesecake is so easy to make, it requires minimal ingredients. Here's what you will be using to make the crust and the filling:

Oreo Crumbs– You can buy oreo crumbs, or you can use 45 oreo cookies and put them into a food processor to make your own crumbs.
Butter– Melt your butter in the microwave in 30-second intervals.
Cream cheese– Leave the cream cheese on the counter at room temperature for 30-minutes to soften.
Sour cream– You want the sour cream to be room temperature as well, not cold.
Sugar– You will need regular white sugar. pack it in the measuring cup.
Heavy cream– This is what makes a creamy no bake filling. Be sure it is cold before whipping. You must use heavy cream. Milk will thin the cheesecakes and they will not set properly.
Vanilla– For the best flavor, you will want to use pure vanilla extract.
Salt– Use kosher salt for this recipe.

First, gather and measure all your ingredients. If you are using Oreos, process them into crumbs, and then follow the steps below.

First, line a standard muffin tin with foil wrappers. Set it to the side.
Next, combine your oreo crumbs and melted butter in a small bowl and mix until it is the texture of wet sand.
Divide the crust evenly between the muffin tins, and push it down to evenly coat the bottom.
Once the crust is packed into the muffin tin, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar together for about 3-minutes.
Turn your mixer on low and add the vanilla extract and salt. Beat until combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream using a wire whisk until stiff peaks form. If using a wire whisk attachment, beat for 2-minutes on high speed.
Add the whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture and gently fold it in to combine.
Finally, divide your cream cheese filling between the muffin tins.
Place your mini cheesecakes in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4-hours before serving.
Serve and Enjoy!

Kitchen notes

The bottom of a shot class works perfectly to pack the crust tightly into the muffin pan.
You want the cream cheese mixture to be light and fluffy when you are done beating it.
We use a ¼ cup cookie scoop to ensure we put an equal amount of cream cheese filling into each muffin compartment.
We recommend letting your cheesecake sit in the refrigerator overnight for best results.
For a smoother, finer crust, remove the filling from the Oreos before turning them into crumbs.
The cream cheese and sour cream must be at room temperature for them to incorporate smoothly. If you forget to set them out, you can microwave them for 10-15 seconds but make sure not to overheat them. You want them barely warm, not hot.
If desired, top with whipped cream or crushed Oreos.

Make the Filling
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar until it is light and fluffy– about 3 minutes.
With the mixer on low, add the vanilla extract and salt. Mix to combine.
In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream using the wire whisk until stiff peaks form— about 2 minutes on high speed.
Add the whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture and fold it gently to combine.
Divide the filling evenly between the muffin tins. We use a ¼ cup cookie scoop to ensure they are all the same size.

Serve chilled as the cheesecakes will soften as they warm. Leftover cheesecakes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
