No Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake - creamy peanut butter cheesecake, Oreo crust, chocolate ganache and peanut butter cup Oreo's!

Going on vacation is always so much fun, but getting back is so much work!  All the laundry, the work, the cleaning, and everything else.  Plus, I am actually heading out on another trip this weekend.  My 9 year old and I are headed back to the Mid-West to see family for a week.  So much for a lazing and relaxing summer!  A little worried about how much I should get done ahead of time for my husband.  I hate to see what he is going to do for a full week of meals on his own!  But just because people are busy, doesn’t mean there isn’t time for desserts!  Especially no bake desserts, that come together in under 20 minutes.

Did you know today is National Cheesecake Day?  I would have missed this day, if a great group of bloggers didn’t give me a heads up.  Roxana from Roxana’s Home Baking, coordinated this event for today, and oh my are you in for a treat! There are a ton of bloggers today who are all sharing some amazing different cheesecakes!  I can not wait to browse all of them, and get in the kitchen to start making more cheesecakes!

No Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake - peanut butter and chocolate lover's dream come true!

Given the heat of the summer, I did not want to heat up my house for over an hour making a traditional cheesecake.  So I decided to try a no bake cheesecake.  Have you tried the new peanut butter cup Oreo’s?  As soon as I saw them at the store, I knew I had to try them.  They seemed like the perfect thing to pair with a peanut butter cheesecake, because we all know that chocolate and peanut butter go so well together!  I used regular Oreo’s to make a crust, then whipped up the peanut butter cheesecake filling, where a few peanut butter cup Oreo’s were crushed and mixed in.  After it set up for awhile, I topped with with a chocolate ganache, and the rest of the Oreo’s.  Talk about peanut butter and chocolate heaven.  So creamy, rich, and delicious!

  14. Have a blast in Iowa! We just sold my parents’ house so it’s more likely to find us in Denver than in Ames now! Can’t say I’m complaining! I love how both you and Anna have the same title for your cheesecakes yet they are so different and both so tempting! I love that Oreo topping, too! Scrumptious dessert!

  15. Oreos and peanut butter really do belong together. This looks incredibly delicious, I don’t think I’d be able to stop at just one slice!

  20. My classmate natalia with her mother came home during last holidays and ufortunately my mom was not there. Thaank god i know well to make shrimp biryani and yes i did a very good job but the problem was i have no idea on how to end the treat and finally i arrived here because you have very good visual description on how to make peanut-butter cheesecake.But I did a small twist here I added 1/2 tin condensed milk and 2 gm cardamom powder and white chocolate mix with grated coconut for more taste.

    I came up with three choices and Yes, I finally made yours and was a good sucess.

    I will share with other two recipe which i found is a good one.
