Can I make this dessert ahead of time?
Yes! This No-Bake Oreo Cheesecake Dessert is perfect for making ahead of time. In fact, it tastes even better after it’s been chilled for a few hours or overnight.

I make this all the time and we leave the leftovers in the fridge and nibble on it when we have a sweet craving!

Can I use a different type of pudding?
While this recipe uses white chocolate pudding for a rich flavor, you can swap it for other flavors like vanilla or chocolate if you prefer.

How long will it keep in the fridge?
This dessert will last for up to 3-4 days in the fridge. Make sure to cover it with plastic wrap or foil to keep it fresh.

Can I make the Oreo crust without a food processor?

Yes! If you don’t have a food processor, you can place the Oreos in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Just be sure the crumbs are as fine as possible to ensure a good, even crust.

How do I know when the whipped cream has reached stiff peaks?

Stiff peaks are when the whipped cream holds its shape and doesn’t fall over when you lift the whisk out. It should be firm and not runny. As you are mixing you will also notice the shine from the heavy whipping cream will become less and less, that's how you know you need to keep mixing!

Can I use a different type of pudding mix, like chocolate or vanilla?

Yes! While white chocolate pudding is recommended for this recipe, you can swap it with vanilla or chocolate pudding to suit your tastes. Keep in mind that this will change the flavor profile of the dessert.

What if I don’t have heavy whipping cream?

If you don’t have heavy whipping cream, you could use a can of whipped topping (like Cool Whip) as a substitute. However, homemade whipped cream will give a richer and fluffier texture.

How do I make Homemade Whipped Cream?

In a large bowl, pour 2 cups of heavy whipping cream with 1/2 cup of powdered sugar. For added flavor, you can add 1/2-1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Beat in a stand mixer or with a hand mixer for 3-5 minutes, until thick and stiff peaks form.

Can I skip the food coloring?

Absolutely! The red food coloring is purely for visual appeal and can be omitted if you prefer a more classic look.

Do I need to refrigerate the dessert?

Yes, the dessert needs to be refrigerated for at least 4 hours to allow the layers to set. For the best texture and flavor, it’s ideal to refrigerate overnight.

Can I use a different kind of cookie for the crust?

Yes, if you don’t have Oreos, you can use other types of chocolate cookies like chocolate graham crackers, chocolate wafer cookies, or even gluten-free cookies for a different twist.

How do I store leftovers?

Store any leftover dessert in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Make sure it’s covered well to keep it fresh.

Can I make this recipe in a smaller pan?

Yes, you can use a smaller pan for a thicker dessert, but be sure to adjust the amount of crust and filling ingredients if you use a much smaller pan.

Can I freeze this dessert?

Yes! You can freeze this no-bake cheesecake dessert for up to a month. Just be sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil to avoid freezer burn. Let it thaw in the refrigerator before serving.

Ingredients Needed For No Bake Oreo Cheesecake

• 1 package Oreo cookies
• 1/2 stick of butter, melted
• 1 8 oz block of cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 3-4 drops of red food coloring (optional, for color)
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• ½ cup powdered sugar (for the whipped cream)
• 2 (3.4 oz) boxes white chocolate pudding

How To Make No Bake Oreo Cheesecake

Step 1: Prepare the Oreo Crust

• Start by processing the Oreo cookies in a food processor until they are finely crushed.
• Toss the crumbs with the melted butter and mix until combined.
• Spread the Oreo mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish or pan (or use a smaller pan for a thicker crust).
• Place the dish in the freezer while you prepare the next layers to help the crust set.

Step 2: Make the Whipped Cream

• In a large mixing bowl, add 2 cups of heavy whipping cream and ½ cup of powdered sugar.
• Beat the mixture on medium speed for about 3-5 minutes until stiff peaks form. Set aside 1/3 of the whipped cream for the cheesecake and pudding layers.

Step 3: Make the Cream Cheese Layer

• In another bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
• Add 3-4 drops of red food coloring for a festive touch and mix well.
• Gently fold in 1/3 of the prepared whipped cream.
• Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the prepared Oreo crust, smoothing it out with a spatula.

Step 4: Make the Pudding Layer

• In a separate bowl, whisk together the white chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until it thickens (about 2-3 minutes).
• Fold in another 1/3 of the whipped cream.
• Carefully spread the pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer.

Step 5: Add the Final Topping

• Spread the remaining whipped cream (or cool whip) on top of the cheesecake layer.
• For extra crunch, top with crushed Oreos, sprinkles or chopped candy!

Step 6: Refrigerate & Serve

• Refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to allow all the layers to set properly.
• Serve chilled, and enjoy this delightful no-bake treat! Add festive sprinkles or any of your favorite toppings to make it even more special.
