I first met Maria at Two Peas and Their Pod in Salt Lake City about a year ago, and she’s as lovely in person as she is on her blog. Since then, she’s been a prolific contributor on Tasty Kitchen and I’m so excited to have her join the ranks as a contributor here on the Tasty Kitchen Blog. This inaugural recipe, which comes from multiplydelicious, has definitely captured my attention this morning. I want one! –Ree
The weather has been cold, gloomy, and rainy lately. I don’t mind days like this, as long as I can stay inside and bake. I love heating up the house with the warmth of our oven. And let’s be honest, I also enjoy sampling what comes out of the oven.
I was in the mood to bake cookies, so I turned to Tasty Kitchen for a little help. I stumbled upon Oreo Cheesecake Cookies from multiplydelicious and knew I needed to preheat the oven right away. Oreo cheesecake in cookie form with a drizzle of white chocolate? Yes, please! These cookies sounded too good to be true. Let’s get baking!
Here is what you will need to bake these delightful cookies:
For a complete list of ingredients, measurements, and instructions, see the recipe link below.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and cream cheese until they are creamy and smooth. You can also use a hand mixer for this step.
Add the sugar and vanilla extract.
Mix until ingredients are well combined.
Slowly add the flour and mix on low speed, just until the flour is incorporated.
Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
Using a cookie scoop, scoop dough into one-inch balls.
Put Oreo cookie crumbs on a plate and roll the dough balls around in the crumbs. Make sure the dough balls are completely covered.
Place covered cookie dough balls onto prepared baking sheets, about two inches apart. Bake cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the cookies are slightly puffed.
Remove cookies from the oven and cool on baking sheets for two minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and cool completely.
Melt the white chocolate in the microwave and drizzle over cooled cookies. Let the cookies sit until the chocolate hardens, about five minutes. (The white chocolate drizzle is optional, but if there is an opportunity to add chocolate, I always go for it.)
Grab a glass of milk and enjoy these rich and tasty cookies.
Visit Heather’s blog, Multiply Delicious, for the original post of this recipe and a lot of other great goodies. Thanks Heather for sharing your recipe. I will be baking these cookies often!

Description
A Oreo cheesecake, but in cookie form. A favorite for those Oreo cheesecake lovers out there.
Ingredients
- ½ cups Unsalted Butter, Softened
- 3 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup All-purpose Flour
- ½ cups Mini Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup Oreo Cookie Crumbs
- ½ cups White Chocolate Chips, Melted (optional)
Preparation Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and cream cheese using a hand mixer until they are well combined.
Add the sugar and vanilla and mix until ingredients are well combined. Add the flour and mix on low until the flour is incorporated. Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
Scoop the dough into 1″ balls (I used a scoop to insure all measured the same) and roll in Oreo cookie crumbs so cookie is covered. Place covered cookie balls onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the tops are slightly puffed.
Cool on the pan for two minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Once cool, drizzle cookies with melted white chocolate. Enjoy!

Catherine on 1.10.2011
do you take the cream out of the oreos? It doesn’t look like the cream is there!
Joey on 1.10.2011
I made these last night, and theydidn’t puff at all — they just spread like crazy. I got delicious cookies, but they were thin and crisp, not soft and chewy. Would using a silpat mat instead of parchment acount for this?
Stephanie C on 1.9.2011

Moonpie on 12.22.2010
Love the recipe, going to make it for last minute gifts. But some can’t be deliver until after Christmas. Wonder how long these will last and if they need to be refrigerated. What do you think? Thanks!
Beth on 11.17.2010
Drop everything! Make these cookies right now! Just see if you can stop smiling! Unbelievably good!
yeni on 11.11.2010
I made these recently and they turned out great. The flavor was good, sweet, and I really enjoyed the oreo crunch. The only thing I didn’t taste much was the cheesecake flavor, but all-in-all they were excellent. Thanks for posting!
Dori on 11.10.2010
Made these this weekend. They were a HIT! Everyone loved them. So easy, so tasty. Will definitely make them again.
Magen T. on 11.8.2010
I made this this weekend, and they turned out pretty bad?! What did I do wrong?? I followed the recipe step by step… I wanted them to be soo delicious but mine just weren’t
They had no cheesecake flavor, or oreo flavor for that matter. I was soo bummed!
stitchinmimi on 11.6.2010
I made these today to take to a “bake off” at a friend’s house. I quadrupled the recipe (using a small cookie scoop it made about 11 dozen) so that I could freeze some. I made the dough balls, rolled them in the crumbs, then put them in the freezer on a cookie sheet. I’ll put them in a freezer bag later. Now whenever I just have to have some of these cookies (or need to take cookies to something), I’ll bake ‘em and drizzle with white chocolate. They were so easy and absolute perfection to eat — just a tiny crunch on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. So glad a friend showed this recipe to me! Also, I put the melted white chocolate into a icing decorator bag with a tiny tip — made drizzling really painless.
Kelly on 11.6.2010
Oh my gosh! I have to make these!
Joan on 11.6.2010
I made these to take to work and share. They were a big hit. Many were printing the recipe off that night..
Amanda on 11.5.2010
Maria, these look delicious! Wish I could take a bite out of one right now!
marla {family fresh cooking} on 11.5.2010

Wow! Those look amazing! Can’t wait to try them out, thanks Maria and Ree!!
Jennie D on 11.4.2010
I made these last night and they were amazing!! Only a few made it to today. These are going on my holiday baking list. I think I might throw some mint flavor in somehow… possibly chopped up Andes Mints in place of the mini choco chips.
DessertForTwo on 11.4.2010
I’m so happy Maria is a contributor! She’s such a sweet girl with great recipes
Kayla on 11.4.2010
Made these last night, AMAZING!!!
Nicole on 11.4.2010
That cookie looks delicious!
Terresa Pace on 11.4.2010
I don’t understand making a cookie out of a cookie. It just seems redundant.
multiplydelicious on 11.3.2010
Hi Marilyn,
You can also freeze them too. I have a bag in my freezer right now actually and we take some out when we have a sweet tooth. Just let them sit out for a little bit to defrost and you have a yummy treat. Enjoy!
twopeasandtheirpod on 11.3.2010
Hi Marilyn-these cookies didn’t last long, but we did have a few make it to day 2:) I kept them in a tupperware container and they were fine. I didn’t refrigerate them. Enjoy!
megan @ whatmegansmaking on 11.3.2010
YUM! I just saved these in my “to-make” list. Can’t wait to try them!
marilyn on 11.3.2010
Agree with everyone that these look super delicious. Question, for anyone who’s made ‘em: do they keep well? If you had any last more than an hour, did you store them in the fridge, since they have cream cheese in them? Or does it not matter, since they’re cooked??
Suzanne @ Window On The Prairie on 11.3.2010
Mmmmmmmmmmmmm ….. cheesecake. Surely the 8th wonder of the world. http://windowontheprairie.com/ Suzanne

Thanks everyone for your kind comments.
Trigirl-you don’t take out the cream filling in the Oreos, just smash them up with the filling!
