This Oreo Cheesecake Icebox Cake is a no-bake, layered dessert featuring rich cream cheese filling and crunchy Oreo cookies. Lightly dunked Oreos are layered with a whipped cream and cream cheese mixture, then chilled to set. Topped with whipped cream and optional chocolate drizzle, it's a deliciously creamy, easy-to-make dessert perfect for any occasion.

  • Total Time: 4 hours 20 minutes
  • Yield: 9 servings

Ingredients

Cookies

  • 48 Oreo cookies (plus more for decorating on top)

Filling

  • 2 1/2 cups whipping cream (600 ml) (33-35% milk fat, separated - 2 cups for the filling and 1/2 cup for the topping)
  • 12 ounces cream cheese (340 grams) (brick style, full fat)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (110 grams)

Other

  • 1/4 cup milk (60 ml) (for dunking the cookies - any variety or additional whipping cream can be used)

Instructions

  1. Prepare chilling tools: Place a large bowl and the whisk attachment of your electric mixer in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill. This helps in whipping the cream to stiff peaks.
  2. Whip cream for filling: Pour 2 cups of cold whipping cream into the chilled bowl and beat until stiff peaks form. Set aside the whipped cream.
  3. Make cream cheese mixture: In a separate large bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy without any lumps.
  4. Combine fillings: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, about half at a time, until smooth and evenly combined.
  5. Prepare cookies: Pour the milk into a shallow bowl and lightly dunk the Oreos one at a time. Shake off excess milk carefully; cookies should be moist but not falling apart.
  6. Assemble bottom layer: Spread 1-2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture evenly on the bottom of an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) pan. Arrange a layer of Oreos on top (about 4 rows of 4 cookies).
  7. Layer cream cheese mixture: Spread half of the remaining cream cheese mixture over the Oreo layer, smoothing it into an even layer.
  8. Add second Oreo layer: Place another layer of lightly dunked Oreos on top of the cream cheese layer.
  9. Layer cream cheese mixture again: Spread the rest of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the second Oreo layer.
  10. Top with final Oreo layer: Add a last layer of Oreos, completing three Oreo layers with cream cheese filling in between.
  11. Chill the cake: Cover the pan and refrigerate (or freeze if preferred) for at least 4 hours to allow the cake to set and flavors to meld.
  12. Prepare whipped cream topping: Before serving, beat the remaining 1/2 cup whipping cream until stiff peaks form and spread it over the top Oreo layer.
  13. Garnish and serve: Optionally drizzle with chocolate sauce and decorate with extra Oreos or Oreo crumbs. Serve chilled.

Notes

  • Do not soak the Oreos too long in milk; a quick dunk ensures they soften but maintain structure.
  • Using full-fat cream cheese and whipping cream provides the best creamy texture and flavor.
  • Chilling the mixing bowl and whisk helps whip the cream faster and to a better consistency.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for optimal setting.
  • Can be made a day ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator.
  • For a richer topping, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the whipped cream topping.
