Craving something creamy, crunchy, and fruity all in one bite? This Oreo Cherry Cheesecake layers rich cheesecake over a chocolatey Oreo crust and finishes with a vibrant cherry topping. It’s a must-bake for any dessert lover!
Ingredients
Scale
- 24 Oreo cookies (plus 1–2 extra for garnish)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Set oven to preheat at 325°F (160°C).
- Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or a zip-top bag and rolling pin.
- Mix the cookie crumbs with melted butter until they resemble wet sand. Press the mixture into a greased 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is silky and smooth.
- Add in eggs one at a time, gently mixing after each addition to avoid overmixing.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes until mostly set with a slight jiggle in the center. Turn off oven and let it rest inside for another hour.
- Let it chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
- Before serving, top with cherry pie filling and garnish with extra crushed Oreos if desired.
Notes
Avoid overmixing the batter to keep your cheesecake fluffy. Cooling it slowly in the oven helps prevent surface cracks.
