The Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make the Oreo Cheesecake Cookies (the exact measurements and full recipe instructions are below in the printable recipe card):

• Butter – basic salted butter is perfect for this recipe.
• Cream cheese – be sure to use full-fat cream cheese.
• Granulated sugar
• All-purpose flour
• Oreo cookies – you can use regular or the double stuffed variety.

How to Make Oreo Cheesecake Cookies

In a large mixing bowl, with an electric mixer beat the cream cheese, butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until fully combined. Add the flour and continue to mix together, just until fully combined.

• Add the chopped Oreos and gently fold together. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in refrigerator for 30 minutes, or until firm.

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll the cookie dough into small balls and place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
• Press the dough balls down to flatten slightly (the cookies will not spread much on their own).

• Bake for 12-15 minutes or until cookies are golden brown on the bottom.

• Place cookies on a cooling rack to cool for at least 5 minutes.

Tips for the Best Cookies

Don’t crush the cookies – We found that crushing the Oreos with a rolling pin created too many crumbs which then turned the cookie dough brown. For the best results, use a knife to chop the cookies into pieces. I aimed for about 4 cookie chunks from each Oreo and this worked very well.

Flatten the cookies – These cookies do not spread a whole lot without some help. You’ll want to flatten the cookie dough balls into disks so they will cook evenly.

Variations

Different Oreos – Try different flavors of Oreo cookies for a fun twist.

Chocolate Chips – Try adding 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips to the batter for even more chocolate flavor!

How to Store Leftovers

Keep the leftover cookies in an airtight container. The cookies will stay fresh at room temperature for up to three days. You can also freeze them in a zip-top freezer bag for up to two months.
