Gorgeous and creamy no bake cheesecake , chock full of oreos!
Prep Time 20 minutes mins
Total Time 6 hours hrs 20 minutes mins
For the base:
- 8 oreos
- 2 tbsp or 28 gram unsalted butter , melted
For the cheesecake:
- 350 grams cream cheese ( I used Britannia's)
- 1/2 cup or 100 grams sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup heavy or whipping cream (I used Amul fresh cream)
- 6 - 8 oreos
-
Crush 8 oreos in a mixer or however you want to crumbs
Mix in the melted butter
Press into a 6 inch springiform pan as uniformly as possible.. You can also line the bottom of a round pan with cling wrap so that it rises above the sides (you ll need to pull it out after it sets). Chill in the fridge when you prepare your filling
Whip up your cream to medium to stiff peaks. Refrigerate until you need to use.
Beat together the cream cheese , vanilla and sugar until smooth.
Fold in the whipped cream.
Fold in the oreos . You can powder them to crumbs like for the crust or you can chop or crush them roughly. I just chopped them into biggish chunks .
Spread the filling onto your crust and smooth the top. Chill in the fridge for atleast 6 hours or overnight. Unmould , garnish on top with more chopped or crumbled oreos and enjoy!
- Use an equal amount of hung curd instead of the cream cheese.
- Adjust the amount of sugar between 1/4 to 1/2 cup depending on your cream cheese / curd and the level of sweetness you want.
- I kept the crust very thin here but the crust is so good that next time , i ll double the crust amount .
- Refrigerate covered for upto 3 days.
