How to Make Oreo Cheesecake Cookies
- Start by crushing Oreos into small pieces (not fine crumbs) and setting them aside. You want chunky pieces so you can taste that signature cookies-and-cream texture in every bite.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together softened cream cheese, butter, and sugar until smooth, then mix in vanilla and flour until the dough is soft and fluffy.
- Gently fold in most of the crushed Oreos, reserving some for topping. Chill the dough for about an hour, then scoop onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, flatten slightly, and sprinkle with extra Oreos.
- Bake cookies at 350°F for 10 minutes, then cool on a rack. They should look just set when you take them out—the centers will finish cooking as they cool.
Yes! You can prepare the dough up to 2 days in advance and store it covered in the refrigerator. When ready to bake, let it sit at room temperature for about 10–15 minutes so it’s easier to scoop.
Absolutely. Freeze baked cookies in a single layer first, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container. They’ll stay fresh for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before enjoying.

Oreo Cheesecake Cookies Recipe
Ingredients
- 35 Oreos
- 8 ounces Cream Cheese softened
- ½ cup Butter softened
- 1 ½ cup Sugar
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 ¾ – 2 cups Flour
Instructions
- 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!
