Can I Make This in a Traditional Pan?

You can use another pan for this Oreo Cheesecake. It’s the measurements of each ingredient that will need to be changed to fit whatever pan you use. You want enough batter to fit the pan.

Is This a No-Bake Cheesecake?

This Oreo Cheesecake is not a No-bake cheesecake. This recipe is placed in the oven to heat the ingredients and set the cheesecake. You will need to set your oven to 325 degrees.
