Ingredients
Scale
- 1 block cream cheese (8 oz / 226 g)
- 1 package Oreos (36 cookies, use 31–36 total)
- 1 pint (2 cups / 480 mL) heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup (170 g) bittersweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup (60 g) powdered sugar
- 3 tbsps instant coffee, divided
Instructions
- Crust Creation: Crush Oreos into fine crumbs and press firmly into an 8 x 8-inch baking dish, creating a compact and even base using the back of a spoon.
- Chocolate Fusion: Melt bittersweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring at 30-second intervals until smooth and glossy, then blend with cream cheese and instant coffee until uniformly velvety.
- Whipped Elevation: Whip heavy cream with instant coffee and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the mocha cream cheese mixture to achieve a light, airy texture.
- Layer Assembly: Spread the chocolate cream cheese mixture evenly over the Oreo crust, strategically place whole Oreos on top, and cover with the remaining coffee-infused whipped cream.
- Oreo Finale: Crumble additional Oreos and scatter fragments across the whipped cream surface, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 8 hours to allow flavors to meld and dessert to set.
- Serving Preparation: Remove from refrigerator 10 minutes before serving to soften slightly, slice, and enjoy the decadent mocha Oreo dessert.
Notes
- Crumb Crust Technique: Press Oreo crumbs firmly and evenly into the baking dish using the back of a spoon to create a compact, uniform base that holds together perfectly.
- Chocolate Melting Tip: Use 30-second microwave intervals, stirring between each session to prevent burning and achieve a smooth, glossy chocolate texture.
- Whipped Cream Perfection: Whip heavy cream at high speed until stiff peaks form, ensuring a light and airy texture that folds seamlessly into the mocha mixture.
- Chilling Importance: Refrigerate for at least 8 hours to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set completely, creating a rich and cohesive final texture.
