How to Make Chocolate Mint No Bake Cheesecake

  1. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add the condensed milk, vanilla extract, and mint extract. Beat until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and chocolate chips until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the cream cheese mixture until just combined.
  5. Crush the Oreo cookies into crumbs.
  6. Press the cookie crumbs into the bottom of a springform pan (9-inch recommended) to form the crust.
  7. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust and spread evenly.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set completely.
  9. Once set, decorate with chocolate shavings, fresh mint leaves, and additional crushed Oreos (optional).
  10. Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan before serving and enjoy!
