Delight in these rich and creamy Oreo Cheesecake Cookies that combine the smoothness of cream cheese with the classic crunch of chopped Oreo cookies. Perfectly soft and slightly golden on the edges, these cookies are a delicious twist on traditional cheesecake, baked to perfection for a delightful treat.

Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Cookie Dough

  • 8 ounces block style cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ cups original Oreo cookies, roughly chopped (from 18–20 cookies)

Instructions

  1. Beat Cream Cheese and Butter: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter for 2-3 minutes using a handheld mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light, fluffy, and free of lumps.
  2. Add Sugar and Vanilla: Add granulated sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and beat again for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  3. Incorporate Flour: Add the all-purpose flour and mix on low speed just until fully combined. The batter will become very thick at this stage.
  4. Fold in Oreo Pieces: Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the roughly chopped Oreo cookies until evenly distributed, making sure not to break the cookie pieces too much to retain contrast in the batter.
  5. Chill the Dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-45 minutes or until the dough is firm enough to handle.
  6. Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  7. Form and Flatten Dough Balls: Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop level amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart. Flatten each dough ball with fingertips or palm to about ¼ to ½ inch thickness and 2 inches wide. Return remaining dough to the refrigerator to keep it cold.
  8. Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes or until cookies are lightly golden around the edges. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
  9. Cool Completely: Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat the scooping, flattening, and baking process until all dough is used.

Notes

  • Ensure cream cheese and butter are softened to room temperature to achieve a smooth, creamy dough.
  • Be careful not to overmix once flour is added to prevent tough cookies.
  • Refrigerating the dough improves handling and helps prevent excessive spreading during baking.
  • Flatten dough balls gently to achieve even baking and the desired cookie thickness.
  • Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
