Filling
- Cream cheese – This is what gives the smooth and creamy texture.
- Granulated sugar – Adds a touch of sweetness.
- Vanilla extract – For added flavor.
- Whipping cream – Lightens the filling so you get that lovely airy texture.

- Line a 9×9 square pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a bowl, combine crushed Oreos and melted butter, mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
- Press the mixture into a prepared pan, using the bottom of a measuring cup or a flat glass to firmly compact it into an even layer. Pop the crust into the fridge to chill while you make the filling.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese, vanilla, whipping cream, and sugar until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the chopped Oreo cookies.
- Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled base, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, or overnight until the cheesecake is fully set.
- Once firm, slice the cheesecake into squares. You’ll have 9 regular servings or 16 smaller bites.
- Top with your favorite decorations according to your theme.
Recipe Tips and Variations
- Use parchment paper – You’ll thank me later as it makes it easier to transfer the bars onto your serving platter.
- Firmly press the base – The based needs to be firmly pressed down so it forms a solid base.
- Chill the bars – I know those 4-6 hours may seem long but you don’t want to skip it.
- Add toppings when serving – Depending on what you are placing on top, you may want to do it just as you serve it so its nice and fresh.
Storage
- Store – Leftover bars can be kept in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days.
- Freeze – You can freeze these bars for 2-3 months. I like to place them in plastic wrap and then an airtight container. You can thaw them on the counter but some do enjoy it straight out of the freezer.
