What is Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake?
Oreo strawberry cheesecake is a dessert made of Oreo cookies, strawberries, and cheesecake. It has a crumbly Oreo cookie crust, a smooth cheesecake interior, and tangy-sweet strawberry syrup.
The crust for an Oreo strawberry cheesecake is made by crushing Oreo cookies and combining them with melted butter.
Cream cheese, sugar, and heavy whipping cream are combined to make the cheesecake filling, which is then whipped to a smooth and creamy consistency. Fresh strawberries are cooked with sugar and unflavored gelatin until they thicken to make strawberry syrup we'll use to add a delicious flavor to the cheesecake.
The three parts are then placed on top of one another to form a delectable and visually beautiful dessert. After being put together, the cheesecake is cooled in the fridge to help it set and become firmer.
Oreo strawberry cheesecake is a delicious dessert that's frequently offered on special occasions like birthdays, holidays, and parties. It is ideal for those who enjoy the rich and creamy flavor of cheesecake with a hint of sweetness from the strawberries and the crunchiness of the Oreo cookies.
What Makes This Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake Recipe Special?
No baking required: Unlike other cheesecake recipes, this Oreo strawberry cheesecake doesn't require any baking. Just assemble it, let it set in the fridge, and enjoy!
Impressive presentation: Once the cheesecake is put together, it looks beautiful and impressive. This makes it a great dessert for special events or when you have friends over.
Delicious flavor combo: The iconic flavors of cheesecake and Oreo cookies are combined with the sweet and tart taste of strawberries in this dish. The combination of these flavors results in a one-of-a-kind and delectable dessert that is sure to impress.
What You Need to Make Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake at Home
All you need are some simple, pantry staple ingredients to make this delicious Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake at home. Let's look at each of these in more detail:
Strawberry Syrup:
- Strawberries: The sweet and tart taste of strawberries go really well together with Oreos in this cheesecake. Make sure they're fresh and try to get organic ones if you can.
- Sugar: We'll add some sweetness to the tart taste of strawberries with sugar. Again, try to use organic sugar if possible.
- Unflavored gelatin: We're going to use unflavored gelatin as the base of our strawberry syrup. You can also use agar-agar for this.
Oreo Crust:
- Oreo cookies: Instead of a typical graham cracker crust, we're going to make ours out of Oreos. It adds a delicious and chocolatey flavor.
- Butter: When mixed with the Oreo cookies, the butter will make our crust nice and rich. It also helps hold everything together.
Cheesecake Filling:
- Cream cheese: Cream cheese will make a delicious base for our cheesecake filling. It has a tangy taste with a rich and creamy texture.
- Sugar: We'll need a little more sugar for the cheesecake filling in this recipe. It helps balance some of the tangy taste in the cream cheese.
- Whipping cream: Heavy whipping cream will help give the cream cheese and sugar a light and fluffy texture. It also adds a nice rich taste.
How to Make Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake (Step-by-Step)
Making this delicious Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake is easier than you think! What's best is that there's no baking involved so it's incredibly easy to make. Let's look at how to make it step by step:
How to Make Homemade Strawberry Syrup
Start by removing the stems of the strawberries and then rinse them thoroughly.
Next, place them into a food processor and pulse them about 5 times for a few seconds each pulse. Keep in mind that the strawberries need to be a little chunky, not pureed. Transfer the processed strawberries to a small pot.
Add sugar and gelatin (or agar-agar), place it on a stovetop, and bring it to a boil, stirring it constantly until the sugar melts.
Reduce the cooking temperature to low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
After the syrup is done simmering, remove it from the heat and let cool completely before adding it to the cream.
How to Make Cheesecake Oreo Crust
Time to make our Oreo crust!
Place Oreo cookies into the food processor and process them for a minute or until they're all crushed. Next, add softened butter and process it for another minute or until everything is combined.
Grease a 9-inch round springform pan with butter, and line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper.
Transfer the crushed buttery Oreo crumbs into the prepared pan using a measuring cup and press the crumbs evenly and firmly. Refrigerate the crust until ready to use.
How to Make Cheesecake Filling
Let's make our cheesecake filling next!
Beat softened cream cheese and sugar on high mixing speed until well combined. Scrape the sides and the bottom of the mixer bowl and mix it well again for about a minute.
Reduce the speed to medium and add cold heavy whipping cream, one cup at a time. Scrape down the sides of the mixer bowl with a silicone spatula and then beat the cream on high for a minute. Make sure not to overbeat it.
With the mixer speed running on low speed, add cold strawberry syrup and mix for 30 seconds.
Then scrape the cream off the sides and the bottom of the mixer bowl using a silicon spatula and beat once more on high for 30 seconds once more. Make sure all the cream and the syrup are combined.
How to Assemble Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake
Time to assemble our delicious no bake Oreo strawberry cheesecake!
Transfer the cheesecake batter into the Oreo crust springform prepared earlier. Even out the top of the cheesecake using a spatula. Refrigerate overnight or for at least 8 hours.
Then gently remove the ring of the springform. Personally, I heat the sides of the springform with a torch a bit before removing it, or you can run a very thin knife between the cheesecake and the pan.
Pipe the cream and garnish with fresh strawberries, slice, and enjoy!
Your delicious Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake is ready to be served!
Tips for Making the Best Oreo Strawberry Cheesecake Ever
Use a food processor to crush Oreos: To make the Oreo crust, use a food processor to crush the cookies into fine crumbs. This will ensure that the crust is evenly mixed and has a consistent texture.
Press the Oreo crust firmly: When you're making the Oreo crust, make sure to press it firmly into the bottom of the baking dish or springform pan. This will help to ensure that the crust stays together and doesn't crumble when you cut the cheesecake.
Chill the cheesecake overnight: After you've assembled the cheesecake, make sure to chill it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This will allow the cheesecake to set and firm up properly, ensuring that it holds its shape and is easier to cut.
How to Make Clean Cheesecake Slices
If you like clean and beautiful slices of cheesecake follow these steps:
- Heat the knife in hot water for 5 seconds.
- Remove the knife from the water and use the paper towel to quickly dry it off the knife.
- Quickly cut into the cheesecake.
- Wipe between each slice. It takes a little more time but is worth preventing a sticky mess.
- Remove the knife and repeat the process after each cut.

This cheesecake is too beautiful to eat! Love the recipe!
Thank you for the kind words. We loved it very much as well! 🙂
Hey, I’m thinking you meant 4 tbsp of butter for the crust? The recipe calls for 4 oz (a whole stick) but the photo shows half a stick (4 tbsp). I used a whole stick and I feel like it was pretty greasy. Otherwise it’s a beautiful recipe! Can’t wait to try it.
I've got that corrected. Thank you for letting me know!
When you add the syrup to the cream, do you whip the cream beforehand???? Plz answer quickly as I will be making this cheesecake tomorrow 😍😛
Yes, you whip the cream and then add cold syrup. I hope this helps!
I made this for work as a birthday cake. It went over real well. But I made it in an 9X13 pan. Wish I could post a picture because I made fancy rose strawberry for the top.
I'm so happy to hear that! Thank you for an amazing review!
