Classic Oreo Cheesecake
I wonder who was the brilliant guy who decided to put oreos into cheesecakes to form this irresistable combination.
I’m really no big fan of cheesecakes, but I can appreciate a good one when I taste one. Since colleague K at work requested for a cheesecake, I decided to try this recipe (for the 2nd time) I came across on the internet.
It is a no-bake recipe. Suits me fine because it sure beats having to clean up the baking tray and oven during mid-week.
Classic Oreo Cheesecake
750g cream cheese, room temp.
3 egg
9 tsp sugar
200g butter, room temp.
14 sweet biscuits
14 oreo cookies
- Prepare a 20×20 cm square tin or equivalent.
- Crush the sweet biscuits and oreo cookies separately into sizeable crumbs (as small as possible for the former and small chewable bits for the latter).
- Mix 125g softened butter with the sweet biscuit crumbs until they bond together.
- Lay the mixture onto the tin until it covers the entire tray, using the back of a spoon to press the mixture down, till about 2 cm thick.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until creamy.
- Beat in the 3 eggs, one at a time.
- Mix in the sugar and remaining butter and cream the batter until well-mixed and smooth.
- Add the crushed oreo cookies into the batter and mix well using hand.
- Pour the batter onto the prepared crust and press lightly to reduce air bubbles.
- Wrap the tin with cellophane wrap and chill for at least 4 hours before serving.
Yield : 1 20×20 cm cake
Considering that this is actually the 2nd time colleague K is asking for the same cheesecake, it should tell you how good this recipe is. 
BUT, this recipe churns out a really rich and decadent cheesecake. Not for those who prefer the lighter versions. And because this is a non-bake recipe, I feel the need to mention that the eggs are hence raw. If you are not comfortable with it, then you’re better off trying out the baked version.
Hi! It’s me again. I just try the baked version last week but it wasn’t as soft as wat I have expect, I suspect it’s overbake.
Can’t wait to see yr pixs!
Hi!
This cheesecake has softened while being transported to work.
Now it’s still in the fridge in the office hardening up.
hi, i dont get it. 3 eggs or 2 eggs? :S
I’m sorry for the confusion.
It’s 3 normal eggs we get in Singapore, or 2 large eggs. So ya, it should be 3 eggs.
Amended it.
Hi. I am thinking of making this cake for my kid. But I am not comfortable to give raw eggs to her. Can I substitute the eggs for something or just don’t put eggs? Thanks!
hi how much quantity of ingredients do i need for a 6 inch round tin?hehe thx
Hi, what is sweet cookie, and where can i get it from? Do i need to remove the cream from the orea biscuit prior to crushing it?
Hey Cel, you can use digestive biscuits to make the crust. You can get them at any supermarkets. =) As for the cream, my friend told me to remove the cream..
