ingredients
For the Oreo Crust:
24 Oreo cookies (about 2 cups crushed)
4 tbsp (½ stick / 56g) unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
16 oz (450g) cream cheese, softened
½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
10 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped
Directions
1. Prepare the Oreo Crust:
Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
Crush 24 Oreo cookies (including the cream filling) into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
Mix the crumbs with melted butter until fully combined.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to set.
2. Make the Cheesecake Filling:
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
Add the chopped Oreo cookies and fold gently to distribute evenly.
3. Assemble & Chill:
Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled Oreo crust.
For extra decoration, sprinkle additional crushed Oreos on top.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) until firm.
4. Slice & Serve:
Lift the cheesecake out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang.
Cut into squares and enjoy!
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I use reduced-fat cream cheese?
Full-fat cream cheese works best for the creamiest texture, but reduced-fat can be used (the filling may be slightly softer).
2. Can I freeze these cheesecake bars?
Yes! Freeze in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge before serving.
3. Can I use a different cookie for the crust?
Absolutely! Try Golden Oreos, chocolate graham crackers, or even Biscoff cookies for a different flavor.
4. Why is my cheesecake layer not firm enough?
Ensure the heavy cream is whipped to stiff peaks and that the bars chill for at least 4 hours (overnight is best).
5. Can I add other mix-ins?
Yes! Chocolate chips, peanut butter swirls, or caramel drizzle would be delicious additions.
