🍫 Indulge in the velvety richness of this No Bake Chocolate Cheesecake, where each bite melts smoothly in your mouth.
πŸŽ‚ Perfect for gatherings, it’s effortlessly made with a creamy filling and delightful cookie crust that requires no baking.

  • Total Time: 4 hours 45 minutes
  • Yield: 1 cheesecake (8 or 9-inch pan)

Ingredients

– 350 grams (about 2 Β½ cups) ground Oreo cookies with filling

– ΒΌ cup plus 1 tablespoon butter (about 75 grams), melted

– 453 grams (2 bricks) cream cheese, softened to room temperature

– 100 grams (Β½ cup) fine granulated sugar (or 171 grams powdered sugar)

– Β½ teaspoon fine sea salt

– 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

– 120 grams (Β½ cup) full-fat sour cream (plain yogurt can be substituted if needed)

– 200 grams semi-sweet or bittersweet dark chocolate (55%–78% cocoa solids), finely chopped and melted, then cooled

– 240 grams (1 cup) heavy cream, cold from the fridge

– Optional topping: Whipped cream made from heavy cream, cocoa powder, sugar, vanilla, and salt, whipped to stiff peaks

Instructions

1-Preheat oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line the bottom of an 8- or 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper and close the sides.

2-Mix the melted butter with the ground Oreos until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan using a measuring cup or your fingers. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then cool completely. (Alternatively, the crust can be pressed in without baking and refrigerated to set if preferred.)

3-In a large mixing bowl, press the cream cheese against the sides to remove lumps. Add sugar, salt, and vanilla extract, then beat until smooth and creamy.

4-Mix in the sour cream thoroughly.

5-Slowly add the cooled melted chocolate to the cream cheese mixture and blend until well combined.

6-Add the cold heavy cream and beat on low speed or stir gently until fully incorporated and the filling becomes smooth and slightly thickened. Avoid overmixing to preserve texture.

7-Pour the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top evenly. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, up to 12 hours, until set and firm.

Notes

🧊 For clean slices, dip a knife in hot water and wipe dry before cutting.
πŸ§€ Use full-fat, brick-style cream cheese for best texture when at room temperature.
🍫 Avoid chocolate chips with stabilizers; use real chopped chocolate for better melting.
