Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Bites:

• 24 Oreo cookies (plus 2–3 extra for garnish)
• 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt

For the Coating (Optional but delicious):

• 8 oz white chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate, melted
• Crushed Oreos or chocolate drizzle for decoration

Tools You’ll Need

• Food processor or plastic bag + rolling pin (to crush cookies)
• Mixing bowl
• Hand mixer or spatula
• Small cookie scoop or tablespoon
• Baking sheet lined with parchment paper
• Microwave-safe bowl (for melting chocolate)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Make the Cheesecake Mixture

In a food processor, crush 24 Oreos until they become fine crumbs. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until smooth and fluffy.

Add the crushed Oreos to the cream cheese mixture and mix until fully combined. The texture should be thick but scoopable.

Step 2: Shape the Bites

Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, scoop out the mixture and roll it into small balls. Place them on the parchment-lined tray.

Freeze the bites for 30–45 minutes until firm. This makes coating them easier and helps them hold their shape.

Step 3: Coat in Chocolate (Optional)

If you’re adding a chocolate shell, melt white or semi-sweet chocolate in 20-second intervals in the microwave, stirring in between.

Dip each chilled Oreo bite into the melted chocolate, using a fork to gently lift and let excess drip off. Return to the tray.

Top with crushed Oreos or a chocolate drizzle while the coating is still wet.

Step 4: Chill & Serve

Pop the tray back in the fridge for 30 minutes or until the coating is set. Then they’re ready to serve!

Tips for Perfect Oreo Cheesecake Bites

• Soften the Cream Cheese – Let it come to room temp so it blends super smooth.
• Don’t Overmix – You want a thick dough-like consistency, not soup.
• Chill Thoroughly – It makes coating easier and helps bites hold their shape.
• Get Creative – Swap regular Oreos for golden or peanut butter ones. Use dark chocolate for the coating if you prefer.

Serving Suggestions

• Party Platter Favorite – Serve on a dessert tray alongside berries and brownies.
• Gift-Ready Treats – Package in mini cupcake liners inside a treat box.
• Holiday Twist – Add crushed peppermint candy or holiday sprinkles for seasonal flair.
• Sweet Snack – Just grab one (or three) straight from the fridge when a craving hits.

How to Store & Freeze

Storing:
Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
