Triple Chocolate Cheesecake is a no bake creamy cheesecake with layers of rich a dark Oreo crust, milk chocolate cheesecake, white chocolate cheesecake and finished with a dark chocolate ganache, piped whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
What a way to start the week am I right?! Just the look of the creamy, dreaminess of this cheesecake is enough to pull me through to the end of the week.
This is one of those over-the-top, fit for Hollywood, showstopper desserts that appear on my blog from time to time! I mean look at this!
Let me break it down for you:
We have an Oreo crust which is my favourite cheesecake base. (There's just something about crushed Oreos mixed with butter!). We then have a layer of a no bake chocolate cheesecake filling. Rich and creamy, easy to make, no gelatin required and with just a hint of chocolate flavour. Top that with an equally creamy and easy to make, no bake white chocolate cheesecake filling. We now have our three layers of chocolate. But we're not done yet!
Top the cheesecake off with a dark and silky chocolate ganache and we have our completed triple chocolate cheesecake!
The base of this cheesecake is based off my Nutella Cheesecake and Oreo Cheesecake. The base cheesecake recipe is the same in all of these because it's just so darn good! The base creates a rich and creamy cheesecake without the need for baking or gelatin and it is so easy to make!
To make the removing of the cheesecake from the pan easier, I like to use a springform pan or a loose bottomed cake tin. If you don't the cheesecake is almost impossible to get out of the tin.
Decorate the cheesecake however you desire. I decorated mine with whipped cream and chocolate shavings but that is optional. For the chocolate shavings I just grabbed a few pieces of chocolate and grated them over the cheesecake!
I hope you will make this recipe over and over again! Remember if you do make this or any of my other recipes, #lightscamerabake on Instagram for a chance to be featured! Also subscribe to my YouTube Channel for more fun baking videos and tutorials.

What I always loved about the cheesecake is that you don't have to bake it and can start eating while cooking:))) This recipe is way more complicated than my basic classic one, but definitely worth the effort!
