No Bake Oreo Cheesecake Recipe

It’s been unseasonably warm in the Northwest lately, and the warm weather brings a need for simple and easy desserts. And if the tasty treat doesn’t require any baking, it moves to the top of my must-make list.

Now I know you’re thinking, but Oreo cookies aren’t gluten free. You’re right, Oreo cookies contain gluten, but I recently found a gluten free version that is just as good.

Of course, it’s been over a decade since I could safely eat Oreos, but these Glutino Gluten Free Chocolate Vanilla Crème Cookies have the taste I remember. This isn’t a sponsored post. I just love these tasty cookies, and wanted to use them in a dessert.

The result is this no bake cheesecake recipe. A scrumptious dessert to take to any summer gathering.

In addition to the no bake convenience, this recipe only requires these six ingredients:

If you’re not a chocolate fan, you’ll want to try my Gluten Free Banana Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting or my Lemon Blueberry Bread with Lemon Glaze. Both of these recipes are easy to make and are completely chocolate free.

How to Make this No Bake Oreo Cheesecake Recipe

Place the cookies in a large Ziploc bag and, using your hands or a rolling pin, crush into small pieces. Reserve ⅓ of the pieces to mix with the filling and to decorate the top.

Melt the butter in a small saucepan.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cookie pieces and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9"x13" pan and set aside.

Sprinkle the remaining cookie pieces over the top.

Chill the cheesecake, in the refrigerator, for at least 4 hours before serving.

Pro Tips

  • I used 2 & ⅓ packages of Glutino Gluten Free Chocolate Vanilla Creme Cookies for this no bake cheesecake, but you could substitute another gluten free sandwich cookie. If you’re not sure how many cookies to use, look at the ounces per package and use 24.5 ounces.
  • If you prefer finer cookie pieces, try pulsing the cookies several times in a food processor. My family prefers the chunkier pieces and it saves me from having to clean another appliance.
  • Always use softened (room temperature) cream cheese. The cream cheese blends better with the other ingredients when it’s softened. Cream cheese straight from the fridge will be too cold and will leave your mixture lumpy instead of creamy.

Recently, I brought this no bake cheesecake to work with me and shared it with several co-workers. The reviews were 5 stars from everyone with one exception. He told me he could only give it 4 stars because the serving size was too small. I’ll count that as a win in my book!

The next time you need an easy summer dessert, give this No Bake Oreo Cheesecake Recipe a try. The creamy filling, on a chocolate cookie crust, topped with more cookie crumbs is sure to be a hit with everyone!

Mixing the filling for longer than the recipe says.

I'd say it's too much liquid in the cheesecake batter and it didn't set fast enough and the liquid and moisture got into the base.
