Frequently Asked Questions about Oreo Cheesecake
You could most definitely make this cheesecake without a springform pan. We’ve made mini Oreo Cheesecakes using this recipe, and they were delicious.
They were made in a muffin tin, heavily spray each insert with non-stick cooking spray to insure there was no sticking.
I have never tried making it in a glass pan, but it is possible. I’d would recommend using a 13×9″ pan or cutting the recipe down 1/3 and using a 9×9 inch pan.
You could most definitely make this recipe without Oreos
Be sure your ingredients are at room temperature when cooking cheesecake. This will help the mixture be more smooth. Nobody wants a cheesecake with cream cheese chunks in it.It will also create a better texture, after cooking.
Storing and Other Tips
Fridge: Allow the Cheesecake to come down to room temperature (covering the cheesecake when it’s still warm will cause condensation and a soggy crust). Cover with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil on top and store it in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- You will most definitely want a hand mixer, or standing mixer for this recipe.There are a lot of thick ingredients, and it will be difficult to fully combine them all, without some type of electric mixer.However, be sure not to over-mix the cheesecake mixture. When you see that the ingredients have become fully combined, turn of the mixer, to avoid over stirring your batter, which could create issues when it bakes.
- To crush your Oreos for your crust, it all depends on how you like it. I prefer larger Oreo chunks in my crust, so I crush my Oreos with a hammer in a thick ziplock bag.If you prefer your crust to be more fine, you could use a blender or food processor to crush up the Oreo’s.
