Oreo Cheesecake Bars have an oreo crust and tons of chopped oreos in the cheesecake filling. This easy bar dessert is an oreo lover’s dream.
Easy To Make
Cheesecake bars are easier and quicker to make than a regular cheesecake and are great for feeding a crowd. This recipe yields 15 to 16 bars.
Equipment Needed
- Food Processor– to crush the oreos for the crust. If you do not have one, place the oreos in a large ziptop bag and use a rolling pin or heavy pan to smash them into small pieces.
- Electric Mixer– either hand-held or stand mixer with the paddle attachment.
Make In Advance For Best Results
You need to make the bars at least 5 to 6 hours before serving them so they have a chance to chill and set up completely. Even better, make them a day in advance.
Oreo Cheesecake Bars Recipe Tips
- When making the crust, do NOT remove the cream from the oreo cookies.
- For best results, use room temperature ingredients. The cream cheese and eggs should sit at room temperature for a few hours and remove the sour cream from the refigerator a little in advance too.
- Don’t forget to spray the baking dish with cooking spray. If you wish, you can line the pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper so that you can lift the bars out of the baking dish easily.
- Cool the bars for at least 1 hour at room temperature before placing them in the refrigerator.
