Non Bake Oreo Cheesecake

My dear husband’s birthday was 2 months after I started my baking journey. Since I have started to bake, of course I must bake the birthday cake myself for him. As I have no much baking experience then and I want this cake to be good since it was his special day. Thus I surf through all the food blogs to look out for those recipes which are easy to make and yet with a lot of positive reviews. Finally I decided that I should go for this Chilled Cream O Cheesecake.

I was not sure how to decorate the cake and since this is the surprise cake for dear husband, I do not want to get help from him. Thus, I just piped out of shape rosette and decorated with some slice kiwi since I can't find any strawberry in the supermarket.
