No Bake Baileys Chocolate (Printable Recipe Version)

Smooth Baileys chocolate cheesecake sitting on an Oreo base, stuffed with creamy chocolate—no oven required.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Chocolate Cookie Base

01 - 115 g unsalted butter, melted
02 - 395 g Oreo cookies (about 33), crushed fine

→ Filling

03 - 450 g full-fat cream cheese, at room temp
04 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
05 - 30 g cocoa powder
06 - 300 ml heavy cream
07 - 60 ml Irish cream liqueur (like Baileys)
08 - 225 g dark chocolate, melted and cooled a bit
09 - 30 g powdered sugar
10 - 100 g sugar

→ Topping & Garnish

11 - 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
12 - 25 g shaved chocolate
13 - 60 g powdered sugar
14 - 240 ml heavy cream

# Steps to Make It:

01 - Dress the chilled cheesecake with whipped topping and sprinkle with shaved chocolate. Dig in right away.
02 - Mix 240 ml cream, 60 g powdered sugar, and vanilla in a bowl. Beat until stiff peaks form, usually 3 to 5 minutes.
03 - Spread the finished cheesecake cream onto the crust, smooth out the top, and pop it in the fridge overnight or at least 8 hours.
04 - Gently mix the whipped cream blend into the cream cheese filling till it's smooth and creamy.
05 - Pour in the cooled melted chocolate and Irish cream. Blend again at a low setting until everything's mixed together nicely.
06 - Beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla together for a couple of minutes on medium till it's totally smooth.
07 - In a separate bowl, whip up 300 ml cream on medium-high until it thickens up, about 3 minutes. Add powdered sugar and cocoa, then beat another minute or two until stiff peaks stay put. Set aside.
08 - Press the cookie mixture into the springform and up the sides. Use a glass or measuring cup to really pack it down. Stick the base in the fridge or freezer to firm up.
09 - Grease a 20 cm springform pan lightly and line the bottom using parchment paper.
10 - Blitz the Oreos into tiny crumbs in a food processor. Stir in the melted butter until everything's moist and crumbly.

# Extra Information:

01 - Leaving it in the fridge all night keeps it firm and creamy. The flavor of the liqueur really pops when you serve it chilled.
