Instructions
- Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with foil, leaving about 1 inch of the foil extending over the edges of the pan. The extra foil will create handles that you can use to lift the No Bake Oreo Cheesecake from the pan.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter. Add crumb mixture into the bottom of prepared pan and press into an even layer.
- In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat cream cheese for about 2 minutes. Gradually add in confectioners' sugar and continue beating until smooth. Beat in vanilla until combined. Use a rubber spatula to fold in the whipped topping until completely incorporated.
- Spoon filling onto crust and spread into an even layer. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
- When you are ready to serve, remove cheesecake from pan using the foil overhang and cut into squares. Before serving, top with cherry pie filling.
Notes
- This cheesecake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days before serving.
