Ingredients

  • 2 9 x13 chocolate sheet cakes

No-Baked Oreo Cheesecake Filling:

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 ½ packages 12 oz. Cream Cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 18 Oreo Cookies Coarsely crushed

Chocolate Ganache

  • 24 oz. milk chocolate finely chopped
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream

Topping

  • 8 Oreo Cookies filling removed and finely crushed

Instructions

  • No-Baked Oreo Cheesecake Filling
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream until it forms soft peaks.
  • In another large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until blended and smooth.
  • Gently stir in whipped cream and crushed cookies.
  • Chocolate Ganache
  • Place half of the chocolate in a mixing bowl. Heat heavy cream on medium high heat until it comes to a boil.
  • Remove from heat and immediately pour cream over chocolate and stir until chocolate is completely melted. Add remain chocolate and stir until chocolate is completely melted.
  • Cool until ganache is thickened but still thin enough to drip down the sides of the cake. (I cooled mine in the fridge for over an hour.)
  • Assembling cake
  • When the cake layers are cool, evenly spread filling on bottom layer, carefully stack the second layer on top of filling. Refrigerate while you make the ganache.
  • Spoon chocolate ganache on top of the cake, spreading to edges and letting the ganache drip down the sides. Decorate top with additional crushed Oreos, diggers and signs if desired. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
