Line the bottom of a 9 inch Spring form pan with Parchment paper and layer oatmeal cream pies on the bottom.

-
Add the vanilla and lemon juice, and mix.

In a separate bowl, add half of the 3 ounce package of Instant cheesecake flavored pudding and 1/2 a cup of half n half, and mix until the pudding is smooth, and no longer grainy.
-
Add the additional 2 Tablespoons as needed, to make the pudding smooth.

When pudding is smooth and thick, add it to the mixing bowl, and blend until completely smooth with the cream cheese.

Add the powdered sugar a little at a time, and blend well after each addition.

When you’re ready to serve, remove from the refrigerator and pipe large dollops of Buttercream frosting around the edge on top of the cheesecake.

Can I make my own homemade frosting?
Sure! We just used store-bought because of time and patience but if you want to add your own homemade frosting, go for it. We have made homemade buttercream for this many times. It’s an easy icing to make but honestly this store bought works well. This recipe calls for Buttercream but I bet that it would taste really great with a cream cheese frosting as well.
How do you store oatmeal creme pie cheesecake once done?
The simplest way is to add it to a storage container and store it in the fridge. You’re going to have to keep it nice and cool because of the ingredients but once you have it safely stored in the fridge, you can then eat on it without worry for the next few days. It’s probably not going to last that long, though, because it will be gobbled up quickly!
If you’re looking for a delicious and simple no-bake cheesecake recipe that is going to be a true treat, this Oatmeal Cream Pie Cheesecake is one that you’re going to start right now!

Is the amount of vanilla extract correct? 1 cup seems like quite a bit….this looks delectable and can’t wait to make it!
Hi Amanda it’s 1 tbsp. Vanilla extract. Thanks for pointing out the mistake! I hope you enjoy the cake if you make it 🙂
The ingredients list does not include the half and half. I bought everything on the list and started to make it, then uh oh! Have to go back to the store
Hi Mary sorry about that. It was in the body of the recipe but was missing in the print out. It’s fixed now. TY for finding it. I hope you enjoy the cheesecake after all that!
Can heavy whipping cream be used instead of half and half?
Yes that will work fine
