The MOST Delicious Oreo Cheesecake Recipe

Alright, alright. I know that I love cheesecake more than any other dessert but come on! Oreo cheesecake?! It’s like the best of both worlds, cookies with creamy and decadent cheesecake collided just so that I could experience this delightful dessert! This cheesecake is so delicious, and the oreo crust really takes it over the top. I especially love that it’s topped with whole Oreos, not only making the presentation perfect but also adding to the overall delicious taste of this cheesecake. The base is like your classic New York cheesecake, but then you add in some delicious crumbled Oreos and top it with some whipped cream. Trust me when I say that you will want to eat this cheesecake all by yourself!

Ingredients You Need to Make Oreo Cheesecake

This list of ingredients is actually very simple! You probably already have all of these ingredients in your kitchen already… Especially if you are an Oreo love like I am! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

Crust

Oreos: I used regular Oreos and not double stuff (even though I love those the most when it comes to just eating them plain!)Butter: I used unsalted butter in this crust.

Cheesecake

Cream Cheese: Set your cream cheese out before you start on your cheesecake. Then it can get soft and mix in with no lumps. Sour Cream: This adds to the deliciously creamy texture that you want in a cheesecake. Granulated Sugar: Sweeten up the sour cream with some sugar. Eggs: I always use large eggs whenever I am baking. Vanilla Extract: Adding a splash of vanilla brings a great flavor to the base of this cheesecake. Oreos: These will complement the oreo crust and be put into the actual cheesecake (and on top as a garnish).

How to Make Oreo Cheesecake

Get ready to make the most delicious dessert of all time. If I haven’t talked it up enough, then keep on scrolling down. The pictures will make your mouth water, and trust me. It tastes as good as it looks!

Use Full Fat: For the best consistency and richness in your cheesecake, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream. Now is not the time to use reduced fat. Save that for your other recipes! Room Temperature Ingredients: To create that smooth, luscious filling, you will want all your ingredients to be at room temperature. If they are too cold, they can cause lumps. Take your ingredients out and let them sit for up to 2 hours.

Prep the Oreo Cheesecake

Bake the Cheesecake

Do not overbeat: When you overbeat your batter, it will put too much air in the mixture, which can cause it to split or rise and fall drastically. Use a water bath: You may shudder at the fact that you must cook your cheesecake in a water bath! But this is the gentlest way to fully cook the cheesecake without curdling it. The best way to keep the water out of your cheesecake is 3-4 layers of 18-inch heavy-duty foil wrapped around the outside of the springform pan. Regular foil is narrower and more prone to leak since it won’t come up high enough around the sides of the pan. Let it cool: You will know your cheesecake is done when there is a slight wobble in the center, but it’s not liquid. Resist the urge to stick a knife or thermometer inside. That will cause it to crack as it cools. Once it is done, turn off the oven and let it cool to room temperature as the oven cools, which takes about an hour. Remove the cheesecake from the cooled oven and chill in the fridge for 6 hours or overnight for best results.
