These creamy no-bake Oreo cheesecake bars are an easy, crowd-pleasing dessert perfect for graduation parties, featuring a crunchy Oreo crust and luscious cream cheese filling.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 24 whole Oreos, crushed (reserve a few for garnish)
  • 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 ounces (450g) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (90g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: pinch of salt
  • Optional: splash of coffee extract
  • Optional: 1/4 cup (25g) cocoa powder for mocha twist
  • Optional: chocolate chips for topping
  • Optional: fresh raspberries or sliced strawberries
  • Optional: plant-based cream cheese and coconut cream for dairy-free version

Instructions

  1. Crush 24 Oreos finely using a food processor or by hand.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine crushed Oreos with 6 tablespoons melted unsalted butter. Mix until crumbs are evenly coated and clump together when pressed.
  3. Press the Oreo mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8×8-inch baking pan, making an even layer. Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to set.
  4. In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces softened cream cheese and 3/4 cup powdered sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and free of lumps, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and continue mixing.
  6. In a separate chilled bowl, whip 1 cup heavy whipping cream to soft peaks.
  7. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in thirds using a spatula until just incorporated.
  8. Chop 4-6 Oreos roughly and fold them into the filling.
  9. Spread the filling evenly over the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  10. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
  11. Before serving, garnish with reserved Oreo crumbs or whole mini Oreos.
  12. Cut into bars using a sharp knife warmed under hot water for neat edges.

Notes

Soften cream cheese fully before mixing to avoid lumps. Whip cream to soft peaks to avoid turning it into butter. Press crust firmly for clean slices. Chill bars overnight for best texture and flavor. If filling is too soft after chilling, freeze for 15 minutes to firm up without freezing solid. Use a sharp knife warmed under hot water for clean cuts.
