Ingredients You’ll Need to Make These Oreo Cheesecake Cookies:
- 35 Oreos
- 8 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
- ½ cup Butter, softened
- 1 ½ cup Sugar
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 ¾ – 2 cups Flour
How to Make Oreo Cheesecake Cookies:
- Place the Oreos in a ziplock bag and gently roll over them with a rolling pin. You want these to turn into broken chunks, not crumbs. (Alternatively, you could use the pulse feature on a food processor and pulse 2-3 times.) Then set aside.
- Cream together the cream cheese, butter, and sugar until well combined.
- Stir in the vanilla and flour, starting with 1 ¾ cup flour and adding more if needed. The dough should feel pillowy when stirring it.
- Gently stir in the Oreos, leave out ½-1 cup if you’re planning on placing some on top of the cookies before baking (this is optional, but makes the cookies look prettier).
- Let chill for about 1 hour, then preheat oven to 350℉.
- Scoop (each scoop should be ~2 tablespoons) the dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet and slightly press down with the back of a spoon. Then top with Oreo pieces (optional).
- Bake for 10 minutes and allow to cool before enjoying!
FAQs
- How many packs of Oreos do I need for this recipe?
- The regular size pack of oreos should have 36 oreos in them (12 servings at 3 cookies per serving), so 1 pack should be just enough!
- I don’t see baking powder or baking soda in this recipe, will this recipe still bake right?
- Yes! This recipe intentionally does not have baking powder or baking soda in it, this recipe bakes just fine without them.
- Can I add anything else to the cookie dough?
- Of course! Simply remove a half a cup (or whole cup) of the oreo crumbs and replace with chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, or another add-in that you choose.
- Why is it recommended to keep in the fridge after 2-3 days?
- This is recommended because of the cream cheese, and it’s best to keep recipes that include cream cheese refrigerated if possible. However, this recipe has also been tested, many times, and the cookies do keep well at room temperature up to 3 days.
- There seems to be a lot of sugar in this recipe, can it be reduced at all?
- Yes. This recipe makes a lot of cookies which is why there is so much sugar. If you’d like to reduce the sugar, start with reducing it by ½ a cup of sugar.
