Instructions
Step 1
Start by removing the cream filling from each Oreo cookie and placing it in a separate bowl, as you will need it later. Crush the cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and using a rolling pin.
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter, then mix it with the Oreo crumbs in a large bowl. Combine thoroughly until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press this cookie mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan or a ring mold placed on a serving plate. Ensure it is even and compact. If you have acetate film, you can line the edges of the pan for easier removal later, although it is not necessary.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the gelatin and milk, then gently heat it without boiling until the gelatin dissolves. Set aside to let it thicken according to package instructions.
While waiting for the gelatin, crush 14 Oreo cookies into slightly larger pieces. In a separate bowl, melt the reserved filling from the cookies using a microwave in short intervals, stirring frequently, or over a double boiler. Allow it to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, melted Oreo filling, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat the mixture until smooth and fully combined.
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually, add the prepared gelatin mixture to the cream cheese mixture and mix just until combined.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until it is evenly incorporated. Next, add in the crushed Oreo cookies and mix to combine.
Step 4
Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in the pan. Spread it evenly with a spatula and tap the plate on the counter gently to release any air bubbles.
You can decorate the top with any leftover Oreo cookies or toppings of your choice. Once finished, place the cheesecake in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 2 hours, but longer is preferred to allow it to set properly.
Servings
When it’s time to serve this indulgent treat, there are many ways to elevate your presentation! A simple garnish of whipped cream and a sprinkle of crushed Oreos can make a beautiful statement. For a splash of color, consider adding fresh berries on top, such as strawberries or raspberries, to contrast the rich flavors. These small touches can bring a festive flair to your dessert table! 🍓🍰
Imagine serving this cheesecake at a cozy picnic! Pack slices in individual containers, bringing a little touch of luxury to your outdoor gathering. Pair it with iced coffee or a refreshing lemonade for a delightful experience. 🍹☕
For an event like a birthday party or anniversary, consider placing the cheesecake on a decorative cake stand and surround it with extra Oreos or chocolate shavings. Your guests won’t just eat with their forks; they’ll feast with their eyes! 🎉✨

Variations
If you're looking for a twist or have dietary restrictions, here are some variations you can try! 🌱✨
Gluten-Free Version: Swap the regular Oreo cookies for gluten-free Oreos. The creamy filling will remain unchanged, but it will satisfy those avoiding gluten. Just check the labels for any hidden gluten ingredients!
Vegan-Friendly Version: For a vegan version, use plant-based cream cheese and coconut cream in place of the heavy cream. Also, choose vegan Oreos, and make sure to use vegan gelatin or agar-agar instead of regular gelatin. Your vegan friends will be thrilled! 🌿💚
Faq
- Can I use different cookies for the crust?
Absolutely! While Oreos create a classic flavor, feel free to experiment with chocolate wafer cookies or even graham crackers for a different taste.
- How long does the cheesecake need to chill?
It’s best to chill the cheesecake for at least 2 hours, but for the best texture, consider leaving it in the fridge overnight!
- What can I do if my whipped cream isn't thickening?
Ensure your cream is very cold and you’re using a high-fat content heavy cream. If it still doesn’t thicken, try chilling your mixing bowl and beaters before whipping.
- Can I make this cheesecake in advance?
Yes! This cheesecake keeps well in the fridge. You can make it up to three days ahead of your event.
- What is the best way to cut this cheesecake neatly?
Dip a sharp knife in hot water before slicing, and wipe it clean between cuts for tidy slices.
- Can I freeze the cheesecake?
Yes, but it’s best to freeze it before adding any toppings. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil to avoid freezer burn.
