Ingredients

  • 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup oreo cookie crumbs
  • 1/2 cup white candy melts (or white chocolate chips), melted (optional)

How To Make oreo cheesecake cookies

  • Step 1
    preheat oven to 375 and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Step 2
    In a large bowl, cream together the butter and cream cheese using a hand mixer until the are mixed well together.
  • Step 3
    Add the sugar and vanilla and mix until combined completely.
  • Step 4
    Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Step 5
    Roll the dough into 1 inch balls and roll in oreo cookie crumbs.
  • Step 6
    Place oreo covered cookies onto prepared baking sheet.
  • Step 7
    Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the tops are slightly puffed.
  • Step 8
    Cool on the pan for a couple of minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
  • Step 9
    Once cooled, drizzle cookies with melted candy melts.
  • Step 10
    Notes: We used salted butter because we didn't have unsalted and it tasted fine.
  • Step 11
    We also used white candy melts and spread the icing rather then drizzling.
  • Step 12
    White chocolate chips would work just as well. We actually shredded the oreo cookies in our blender.
