Description
A delicious no-bake dessert that combines a rich chocolate cheesecake with cherry pie filling and a crunchy Oreo crust.
Ingredients
Scale
- 32 Oreos the whole cookie, filling included
- 4 tablespoons salted butter melted
- 16 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup cherry pie filling
- 8 ounces whipped topping thawed
- 1 cup whipped cream or whipped topping
- 1 cup cherry pie filling
- Optional Garnish: chocolate shavings
Instructions
- Lightly spray a 9 inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
- For the OREO Crust: Place OREOS in a food processor and pulse until only small crumbs remain. (Can also place in a large ziploc bag and crush with a rolling pin.)
- Add in the melted butter and pulse together until fully incorporated. Mixture should look like wet sand.
- Evenly press the crust mixture into the prepared springform pan. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
- For the Cheesecake Filling: Combine cream cheese, granulated sugar, and cocoa powder in a large bowl. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat together for 3 to 5 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
- Add in the sour cream and beat until thoroughly combined.
- Gently fold in the one cup of cherry pie filling being careful not to crush the cherries and then fold in the whipped topping.
- Transfer the filling to the frozen crust and spread evenly. Cover again with plastic and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours (overnight preferred).
- On Serving Day: Transfer the whipped cream to a piping bag and pipe large swirls on the edge of the cheesecake.
- Spoon the cherry pie filling to the middle of the cheesecake and gently spread towards the whipped cream.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings, cut into slices, and serve.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, you can use dark chocolate cocoa powder.
- Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
- This cheesecake can be made a day in advance to let the flavors meld.
