A sinful no-bake vanilla cheesecake with Oreos, caramel and golden honeycomb nugget sprinkles.

Do I have your attention yet?

I thought so!

That's one amazing looking cheesecake, isn't it and it tastes lush!

It's easy to make too, stunning as it is.

Oreo and Caramel Cheesecake

This sinful no-bake vanilla deep cheesecake is studded with crumbled Oreos, topped with rich, creamy caramel and  finished with little bites of golden honeycomb nugget sprinkles.

It is heavenly!

Everyone loves it, including me. A bit too much unfortunately. It's hard just to have one slice.

No-Bake Cheesecake

I love a no bake cheesecake. They are easy to make, luxurious and taste much fresher than a baked cheesecake. They are much lighter too.

For a deep cheesecake like this one, use a smaller but deeper pan. A loose bottom pan is the one you want.

You could use a wider pan, but you won't get such a high, majestic cheesecake as this one.

Oreos

Oreos are American sandwich cookies created way back in 1912.

They have only become popular here in the UK a few years ago, but once tried they are rather addictive.

I crushed oreos and mixed them through the deep vanilla cheesecake layer of this dessert and I also used the Oreos in the biscuity base too.

You could use bourbon biscuits instead of Oreos for a similar result or just use bourbons for the base to make this cheesecake a little cheaper. Check your supermarket for budget or basic bourbons.

pin it for later

Good Quality Vanilla Beans

Sometimes I use vanilla extract when I am baking but you get an even better flavour if you use good quality vanilla beans.

Just slit the beans and scrap out those beautiful little beans that are packed with flavour.

If you don't have vanilla beans, you can use a good quality vanilla extract, but never ever use vanilla essence. It is a cheap, nasty product that tastes awful. 

There are things you can skimp on when baking, but never the vanilla.
