No Bake Creamy Peanut Butter Chocolate Cheesecake
Recipe: Ingredients
For the base:
- 1 1/4 cups Oreo cookie crumbs
- 5 tablespoons melted butter
For the cheesecake:
- 900 grams cream cheese (approximately 32 ounces)
- 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
- 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups whipped cream
For the chocolate ganache:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 500 grams high quality milk chocolate (approximately 18 ounces)
For garnish:
- crushed peanuts
- whipped cream
Recipe: Instructions
- Add the Oreo cookie crumbs and the melted butter to a small bowl and stir to combine.
- Press the Oreo cookie mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan and set in the refrigerator to chill.
- Whip the cream cheese on high speed in a large bowl, adding the powdered sugar slowly until the mixture is creamy and fluffy.
- Add the peanut butter and continue beating on high speed until everything is incorporated.
- Fold in the whipped cream with a rubber spatula just until combined and pour the cheesecake mixture into the spring form pan on top of the chilled crust.
- Smooth out the top carefully with a spatula and allow the cheesecake to set in the freezer for 6 to 12 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Make the ganache by heating the whipping cream in a small pot on the stove or in the microwave, removing from the heat just before boiling.
- Pour the hot cream over the milk chocolate in a separate bowl and stir gently until the chocolate has melted and the ganache is smooth.
- Cool the ganache completely to room temperature before spooning it over the chilled cheesecake.
- Store the cheesecake in the refrigerator until serving to be sure the ganache sets and to give the cheesecake a chance to thaw (1-2 hours in the fridge is best)
- Just before serving, add some whipped cream and crushed peanuts to the top!

I can’t wait to make this! If I wanted to make it in a 6″ pan, how much should I reduce the recipe by? Thanks!
I’ve never made it in that size pan, but I’d suggest subtracting 1/3 to start with. Good luck!
This was awesome ! They consistency was perfect and it held its shape very well . Perfect for a hot summer day, I will be making this again !
So glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the positive feedback!☺️
Peanut butter and chocolate are seriously the best combination ever! I need this in my life ASAP!

Oh, I love this! What a great way to serve up an easy cheesecake! And the peanut butter? YES!
Thanks so much!! Yes, I love the peanut butter too! I hope you enjoy them 🙂
Could you substitute Biscoff Cookie Butter instead of the regular Peanut Butter?
Yes you can!
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what is whipped cream that you add to the filling? Heavy cream that is whipped? Cool Whip? I’m just not sure what this is (I watched the video but can’t tell what you used). I’m ordering the ingredients on WalMart, and when I type in Whipped Cream, there are several different items to choose from! I’m not sure which is the right one.
Thank you so much for your help.
You can use whipped heavy cream or cool whip, both work well.
