No-Bake German Chocolate Cheesecake
Get ready for a dessert that’s pure heaven on a plate! This No-Bake German Chocolate Cheesecake combines rich chocolate, creamy cheesecake, and a nutty topping, all with zero baking involved. Let’s dive into this chocolatey delight!
Ingredients:
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 2 cups Oreo cookie crumbs (about 24 cookies)
– 1/2 cup melted butter
– 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
– 1 cup chopped pecans
– 1/2 cup caramel sauce
– 1 cup chocolate ganache (made with chocolate and heavy cream)
Instructions:
1. Start by preparing the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter. Mix well until the crumbs are fully coated.
2. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even layer. Place it in the refrigerator to set while you make the filling.
3. In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. This will take about 2-3 minutes.
4. Gradually add the chocolate ganache (allow it to cool slightly if it’s warm) into the beaten cream cheese and mix until fully combined and fluffy.
5. Pour the creamy filling into the prepared crust and spread it evenly. Tap the pan gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
6. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or until it’s firm (overnight is even better!).
7. Just before serving, sprinkle the shredded coconut and chopped pecans over the top of the cheesecake. Drizzle with caramel sauce for an extra layer of indulgence!
8. Carefully release the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice into pieces, and enjoy your masterpiece!
