A deliciously creamy no bake cheesecake served in a glass with Oreo cookie crumbs aka magic dust and a fresh and sweet raspberry sauce. Raspberry Oreo No Bake Cheesecake Parfaits are all done in less than 5 minutes! Hello weekend. It’s nice to see you again.
Let me break this down for you. This wasn’t my fault.
Okay. So it was. But that’s not the point. The point is…Oreos and Raspberries enveloped in a beautiful ‘cheesecake’ that I didn’t have to bake.I mean, who needs a point anyway when you’re looking at something like this in your face and it’s about to enter your mouth? Exactly. That’s my point.
This was so easy my 6 year old was ‘building’ them with me. Especially when it came down to making this chocolate Oreo magic dust. And having these raspberries in the fridge was a perfect accident. Because they go so beautifully with these parfaits.
This was our Friday night dessert which I fell head over heels in love with — more than I crush on Johnny Depp — that I made it the very next morning for breakfast to post on my blog. Ohhhh woe is me. The life of a food blogger.
Throw it all into your glasses and face plant. That’s how it goes.

Hi Karina,
Just found your site and I’m really looking forward to trying some of your recipes. I have a question about the Fat Free Cream Cheese though…where do you buy this from? I haven’t ever seen this here in Australian stores, or is this for your American subscribers?
I only have full fat on hand, so I assume this is ok to use, apart from the extra calories!!
Karina says
Hi Sonja! There is a 5% fat cream cheese from Philadelphia that I use. I get it from both Coles or Woolies if that helps? It’s not completely fat free but it’s close! Otherwise, any cream cheese is fine to use 🙂
Safa Zubeen says
is it necessary to add yogurt?
Karina says
No you don’t need to add the yoghurt. It can be replaced with extra cream cheese 🙂
