Description

This decadent No-Bake Reese’s Cheesecake features a crunchy Oreo base, creamy peanut butter filling loaded with Reese’s cups, and a rich chocolate ganache topping. Perfect for chocolate and peanut butter lovers.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Oreo Base:

26 (290g) Oreo cookies, finely crushed

90g unsalted butter, melted

For the Cheesecake Filling:

400ml double cream, cold

500g full-fat cream cheese

400g smooth, creamy peanut butter

80g icing sugar

180g Reese’s minis, cut in half

For the Chocolate Topping:

150g dark chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)

150ml double cream, hot

150g Reese’s minis, cut in half


Instructions

  1. Lightly grease an 8-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Combine crushed Oreos with melted butter until thoroughly mixed. Press firmly into the bottom of the springform pan and chill while preparing the filling.
  3. Whip the cold double cream to stiff peaks. In a separate bowl, mix cream cheese, peanut butter, and icing sugar until smooth.
  4. Fold in the whipped cream gently, then fold in the halved Reese’s minis.
  5. Pour the filling over the chilled base, smooth the top, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  6. Heat the double cream until hot but not boiling. Pour over the chocolate chips and let sit for a minute before stirring until smooth.
  7. Pour the ganache over the set cheesecake. Top with halved Reese’s minis and return to the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  8. Release the springform pan sides and transfer the cheesecake to a serving plate. Slice with a warm knife for clean cuts.
