A creamy Mint Oreo Cheesecake served on a crisp Oreo cookie crust and made with no waterbath required! Top it off with a dark chocolate ganache and whipped cream for a decadent mint and chocolate treat!
Can you think of any dessert that’s more satisfying than a decadent slice of cheesecake? This Mint Oreo Cheesecake takes this classically rich favorite and gives it a refreshing mint twist. Made with a creamy peppermint-flavored center that’s stuffed with Mint Oreo pieces, a crisp Oreo cookie crust, a thick chocolate fudge ganache, and light and airy whipped cream, this dessert is a surefire showstopper! And while the green color is totally optional, wouldn’t it make for a great St. Patrick’s Day dessert!?
Tips for Making Perfect Cheesecake
For best results and a cheesecake that’s not likely to crack, I recommend using all room-temperature ingredients. Set your cream cheese, sour cream, and eggs out to reach room temperature before mixing everything together. Don’t leave out the sour cream! I’ve mentioned this before in my no-bake cheesecake recipe — sour cream is what makes a cheesecake really taste like a cheesecake. This key ingredient gives your dessert that critical depth of flavor. This recipe does not use a water bath, but as some springform pans are known to leak I recommend wrapping the bottom of your springform pan with foil to prevent anything leaking into your oven. If you do end up with any cracks in your cheesecake, you can easily conceal them with a sweet dark chocolate ganache covering!
I like to top off my Mint Oreo Cheesecake with my easy homemade whipped cream, but if you’re feeling a little less ambitious then store-bought Cool Whip will work, too (or you can just omit the whipped cream!). Enjoy! All nutritional information is based on third party calculations and is only an estimate.
