🍪 What Are Oreo Cheesecake Sushi Rolls?
Imagine the mouthfeel of a rich, velvety cheesecake filling encased in a soft, chocolaty Oreo crust and then rolled into swirled “sushi” style bites, complete with decadent, rich melted chocolate. The new twist on the traditional rolled desserts, however, is that they are not using a thin sheet of baking paper, but the one everyone likes the most, a cookie to create a delicious bite-sized snack.
These sushi rolls are:
-
No-bake & fuss-free
-
Rich and creamy
-
Visually stunning
-
Great for parties, potlucks or late night cravings
Ingredients You’ll Need
To make this dessert all you need are just a few basic ingredients:
-
24 Oreos (regular or double stuffed)
-
4 tablespoons melted butter
-
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
-
1/4 cup powdered sugar
-
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (whipped quite stiff)
-
4 oz semi-sweet or milk chocolate (melted, to drizzle)
-
Optional toppings: crushed Oreos, sprinkles, coconut, fresh fruit
How to Make It – Step by Step
Make the Oreo “Dough”
Put the Oreo cookies (with cream filling) in the food processor and grind into crumbs by pulsing. Add the melted butter and pulse again until the combination is sticky and pliable — like a soft dough.
Turn the dough over to the parchment paper or plastic wrap. Roll out and flatten it to a thin rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Refrigerate while you make the filling.
Mix Up the Cheesecake Filling
Add softened cream cheese into the bowl, and beat it until smooth. Add icing sugar and vanilla mix and combine. Carefully fold in the whipped cream so that the filling remains light and fluffy.
Carefully pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled Oreo layer without allowing it to go beyond the edges, so that the filling does not spill out when rolling up.
Roll It Up!
Using the parchment paper to help, roll the Oreo-cheesecake sheet tightly into a log — similar to a sushi roll or jelly roll. Be tender, but firm enough to retain the shape. Roll into a ball, wrap with the parchment or plastic wrap and leave for 1-2 hours in the fridge in order to set.
Slice & Drizzle
Once chilled and firm, take out of the fridge and unwrap. Using a sharp knife cut the log into 1-inch rolls. Transfer to a serving plate and pour liberally with melted chocolate. Add Oreo or preferred toppings crushed if wanting.
Serving Suggestions
Oreo cheesecake sushi rolls are rich and delicious on their own, but here are some ways to take your dessert platter to the next level:
-
Eat with fresh strawberries, slices of banana or raspberries.
-
Serve and dip with whipped cream.
-
Use with cold milk or espresso.
-
Add some festive sprinkles or chocolate curls.
Make-Ahead & Storage Tips
Make-Ahead: These rolls are great to make the night before. In fact, they cut better after several hours of refrigerating!
Storage: Keep refrigerated in airtight container to a maximum of 4 days.
Freezer-Friendly: Yes! Freeze the whole roll and wrap well then thaw in the fridge then slice.
Fun Variations to Try
Want to mix things up? Try these entertaining variations on the classic version:
-
Mint Oreo Roll-Ups: The filling: Mint Oreos and a drop of peppermint extract.
-
Peanut Butter Twist: Prior to rolling, a layer of cheesecake is mixed with a smoush of peanut butter.
-
Strawberry Cheesecake Sushi: Stuff the filling with strawberries that are diced or mixed with jam made of strawberries.
-
Nutella Delight: Before cheesecake, spread a layer of Nutella over the crust, which is thin.
Tips for Success
-
Cream cheese needs to be completely softened to prevent lumps in the filling.
-
Cover the surface with parchment paper to help you roll tightly without tearing the Oreo layer.
-
Can be refrigerated to cool then sliced to give clean sharp edges.
-
Cut with a hot, sharp knife — wipe the knife between cuts for the best results.
