Ingredients
Crust
- 24-26 Oreo cookies (more as desired)
Cheesecake Filling
- 1 8 oz block of cream cheese, softened
- 2/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 8 oz container Cool Whip or whipped topping
Topping
- Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- Additional crushed Oreos (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Oreo crust: Place the Oreos in a plastic bag and seal it tightly. Use a rolling pin or a sturdy wooden spoon to crush the Oreos into fine crumbs. Spoon about 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of the crushed Oreos into the bottom of each of six small dessert dishes (each container should be approximately 3/4 cup to 1 cup in size). Set the dishes aside to form the crust layer.
- Make the cheesecake filling: Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until creamy and smooth. Add the vanilla extract and continue beating until well incorporated. Gently fold in the Cool Whip to blend evenly without deflating the mixture. Then fold in the remaining crushed Oreos, reserving a bit for garnish.
- Assemble the cups: Divide the cheesecake filling evenly among the prepared dessert dishes, spreading and gently pressing it on top of the Oreo crust layer to form a creamy cheesecake cup. Cover and chill the cups in the refrigerator for about 1 hour, allowing the filling to set and flavors to meld.
- Garnish and serve: Just before serving, top each cheesecake cup with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle additional crushed Oreos on top for an extra crunchy finish. Serve chilled and enjoy your no-bake Oreo cheesecake cups!
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother texture.
- You can substitute Cool Whip with homemade whipped cream if preferred, but it may affect the stability of the cheesecake cups.
- Use small dessert dishes or cups around 3/4 to 1 cup in size to create perfect individual servings.
- Chill time can be extended up to 3 hours if you want a firmer texture.
- For a chocolate lover’s touch, add mini chocolate chips in the filling along with crushed Oreos.
