Ingredient Notes

Here are some notes on the ingredients. For a full list of ingredients, check out the recipe card below.

• Cream Cheese- Pull this out 2 hours before baking to get to room temperature.
• Unsalted butter- Melt this before you need it so it has time to cool to room temperature.
• Brown sugar- I used light brown sugar for this, but dark will work as well.
• Large Eggs- Pull these out 2 hours before baking to get them to room temperature.
• Oreos- This recipe is for regular Oreos. Do not use Double Stuff Oreos as they have more moisture. For the crumbs you can blend until you have fine crumbs, but for the pieces simply pulse the Oreos until you have chunks of Oreo about the size of a dime.

Step By Step Instructions - Cheesecake Filling

Here is how to make and bake the Cheesecake filling for the Oreo cheesecake cookies. This recipe requires an electric mixer. I recommend a hand mixer for convenience, but a stand mixer with paddle attachment will work well.

STEP 1: Beat cheesecake. Use a small bowl and a hand mixer to beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract on high speed for 1 minute.

STEP 2: Set on sheet. Line a cookie sheet with wax paper. Then, scoop ½ tablespoon dollops of cheesecake onto the sheet.

STEP 3: Freeze. Place the sheet in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to freeze the cheesecake filling dollops.

Step By Step Instructions - Oreo Cheesecake Cookies

Here is how to make and bake the Oreo cheesecake cookies.

STEP 1: Dry ingredients. Mix the all purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.

If you have not blended your Oreo pieces and crumbs yet, use a food processor to prepare them now.

STEP 2: Wet ingredients. Use a mixer to beat the melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together on high speed for 2 minutes. Then, add the vanilla extract and eggs and mix on medium speed until it is fully combined.

STEP 3: Combine. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix them in on low speed until they are just combined. Next, add the Oreo pieces and Oreo crumbs and mix them in on low speed.

STEP 4: Prep. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Meanwhile, let the cookie dough rest for 10 minutes.

STEP 5: Scoop. Use a large cookie scoop (2 tablespoon or 2 oz) to scoop the cookie dough. While the ball of dough is in the scoop press your thumb into the center to create a hole. Place a cheesecake ball inside and close the dough over the hole.

STEP 6: Bake cookies. Place 6 cookie dough balls per prepared baking sheet. Then, bake 1 baking tray at a time for 13-15 minutes. The cookies are done baking when the edges are lightly golden brown.

STEP 7: Cool. As soon as the cookies come out of the oven place Oreo pieces on top. Then, let them sit in the hot baking pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely. Then, chill the cookies in the fridge as they are best when cold.

Expert Baking Tips

• Properly measure your flour- Make sure the flour is spooned and leveled. If you stick the measuring cup directly into the flour, it will compact the flour giving you too much flour. Compacted flour can cause the cookies to not spread.
• If the cookies are spreading, make sure you are using parchment paper on the cookie sheet. If they are still spreading too much this could be the butter was too warm before adding the ingredients. If it still spreads too much, you chill the cookie dough balls for 10-15 minutes.
• If you live at high altitude, add an extra 2 Tablespoons of flour. This will help with the spread.
• For best results the cookies should be slightly underdone when coming out of the oven, because they will continue to cook as they cool.
