Why You Will Love This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe

This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe is the most completely extraordinary and the most genuinely legendary individual baked Oreo cheesecake that delivers the most completely immersive cookies-and-cream individual experience through the most brilliantly comprehensive triple-Oreo approach — thick crushed Oreo crust, Oreo-studded cream cheese filling, and Oreo-garnished chocolate ganache and whipped cream topping — making this the most genuinely all-encompassing and the most completely extraordinary individual Oreo dessert in the most complete Nonna’s Kitchen collection.
The most specific and the most critically important technique for the most beautifully visible and the most most properly textured individual crushed Oreo pieces throughout the cream cheese filling is adding them to the most completely finished individual filling just before pouring into the crust — adding the most early produces the most crushed-to-invisible individual result while adding at the most final step preserves the most beautifully distinct and the most clearly visible individual Oreo cookie pieces throughout every individual slice. Our Red Velvet Oreo Cheesecake makes a beautifully equally Oreo-crusted and equally celebration-spectacular companion for a complete and wonderful Oreo cheesecake collection.
Ingredients Needed for This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe
For the Thick Oreo Cookie Crust:
- 36 Oreo Cookies (entire standard package), crushed to fine crumbs with filling
- 5 tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted
For the Oreo Cream Cheese Filling:
- 32 oz (four 8 oz packages) Full-Fat Brick-Style Cream Cheese, room temperature
- 1¼ cups Granulated Sugar
- 1 cup Sour Cream, room temperature
- 1½ tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 4 large Eggs, room temperature
- 15 Oreo Cookies, roughly crushed (filling included)
For the Chocolate Ganache Topping:
- 4 oz Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- ½ cup Heavy Cream
For Decoration:
- Whipped Cream, piped in rosettes
- 6 to 8 Whole Oreo Cookies
How to Make This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe
Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with two to three layers of heavy-duty aluminum foil most thoroughly.
For the crust, process 36 Oreo cookies — whole, with filling — to the most fine crumbs. Mix with the melted butter until the most evenly combined. Press most firmly into the bottom and partially up the sides of the prepared springform pan for the most compactly thick and the most properly structural individual crust. Pre-bake for 8 minutes. Set aside, cara mia.
For the filling, beat the four packages of room-temperature cream cheese until the most silky smooth. Add the sugar and beat until well combined. Add sour cream and vanilla and beat smooth. On the most low speed, add eggs one at a time, beating just until incorporated after each — do not overmix.
Fold the 15 roughly crushed Oreos into the most completely finished individual filling most gently by hand.
Pour the Oreo filling over the pre-baked crust. Place the wrapped springform pan in a large roasting pan. Fill the roasting pan with hot water to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
Bake at 325°F for 55 to 65 minutes until the edges are the most fully set and the center shows a gentle jello-like jiggle. Remove from oven and water bath. Run a thin knife around the edge. Cool at room temperature one hour. Refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight.
For the ganache, heat cream to just simmering, pour over chips, rest 2 to 3 minutes, whisk smooth. Allow to cool to drizzle-able consistency. Pour over the chilled cheesecake surface.
Pipe whipped cream rosettes around the top edge and place whole Oreo cookies between the rosettes.
How to Serve This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe
Serve cold from the refrigerator using a large sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry between each cut for the most cleanly defined and the most beautifully dramatic individual cross-section of thick Oreo crust, Oreo-studded cream cheese filling, and chocolate ganache.
For the most completely extraordinary individual presentation, remove the springform ring most carefully with a flourish before the most appreciative audience for the most dramatically revealing and the most genuinely theatrical individual celebration cheesecake moment. Our Biscoff Cheesecake makes a beautifully equally no-bake and equally show-stopping companion for a complete and wonderful celebration cheesecake collection.
How to Store This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The cheesecake is genuinely the most extraordinary on day two as the flavors deepen and the crushed Oreo pieces within the filling soften to the most perfectly integrated individual texture. Make the ganache, pipe the whipped cream, and add the whole Oreo garnish on the day of serving for the most properly fresh individual appearance.
Tips to Make This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe

Add the roughly crushed Oreos to the most completely finished individual filling as the most last step immediately before pouring into the crust — this most timing-specific technique preserves the most beautifully distinct and the most clearly visible individual cookie pieces throughout the finished individual cheesecake while adding them earlier causes them to break down and disappear into the surrounding individual filling.
Bring all four cream cheese packages, the sour cream, and all four eggs completely to room temperature — a full 45 minutes to one hour — before beginning. Cold individual dairy products force excessive mixing that incorporates too much air and produces the most undesirable surface cracking during and after baking.
Helpful Notes for This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe
The most thick Oreo crust produced by the most entire standard package of 36 individual cookies is the single most dramatically distinguishing characteristic that makes this Oreo cheesecake so genuinely extraordinary — the most thick and the most properly substantial individual Oreo crust provides the most beautifully defined and the most satisfying individual foundation that thin crusts can never replicate.
Make this individual Oreo cheesecake two full days before serving for the most completely extraordinary and the most deeply developed individual cookies-and-cream flavor — two days of refrigerator chilling produces the most magnificently melded individual flavor that one-day chilling simply cannot achieve.
Variation of This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe
Maria made a version using Double Stuf Oreos throughout every component for the most completely extraordinary and the most dramatically creamier individual Double Stuf Oreo cheesecake. Teresa tried layering the filling — alternating plain cream cheese and Oreo-studded individual layers — for the most completely extraordinary and the most dramatically defined individual striped Oreo cheesecake cross-section.
For a no-bake Oreo cheesecake version, substitute the baked filling with a no-bake cream cheese and whipped cream filling set with the same individual overnight refrigeration for the most completely extraordinary and the most effortlessly quick no-bake alternative. Our Biscoff Cheesecake makes a beautifully equally no-bake and equally celebration-spectacular companion for a complete and wonderful cheesecake collection.
FAQs About This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe
Why use the entire package of 36 Oreos for the crust?
The most entire standard package of 36 individual Oreos produces a most dramatically thick and the most substantially deep individual Oreo crust that is the single most iconic and the most completely extraordinary characteristic of this Oreo Cheesecake recipe — the most thick crust provides the most satisfying individual foundation that thinner crusts made from fewer cookies simply cannot replicate. The most full package is both the most practically convenient and the most specifically spectacular individual choice.
Do I need to scrape the filling from the Oreos for the crust?
No — use the whole Oreo cookies with cream filling intact for both the crust and the filling addition. The cream filling in the crust contributes the most essential individual sweetness and the most beautifully binding creaminess that produces the most compactly pressed and the most properly firm individual crust. The cream filling in the filling addition contributes the most essential individual sweetness and the most recognizably Oreo individual flavor.
How long does the Oreo cheesecake need to refrigerate?
A minimum of 8 hours is required — overnight is the most strongly recommended — and two full days produces the most extraordinary result. The most extended individual refrigerator chilling allows the cheesecake filling to the most completely set and the most beautifully firm for the most cleanly sliceable individual result, the crushed individual Oreo pieces within the filling to soften to the most perfectly integrated individual texture, and the individual flavors to the most completely develop and meld for the most deeply extraordinary individual cookies-and-cream experience.
Conclusion
This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe is the most completely extraordinary and the most genuinely legendary baked Oreo cookies-and-cream celebration cheesecake that makes every birthday and every gathering feel genuinely and completely magnificent through the most thick Oreo crust and the most Oreo-studded cream cheese filling and the most beautiful chocolate ganache and whipped cream rosette and whole Oreo decoration in every single spectacularly beautiful and completely irresistible Oreo cheesecake recipe slice.
