Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup crushed Oreos
  • A few drops of red food coloring (optional)

Cookie Dough

  • 1 roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Add the egg and mix thoroughly until combined. Gently fold in the crushed Oreos and a few drops of red food coloring, if desired, to tint the filling.
  2. Assemble Cookies: Take a tablespoon of refrigerated sugar cookie dough and flatten it into a disc. Place a spoonful of the prepared cheesecake mixture in the center. Then, top it with another flattened tablespoon of cookie dough and carefully seal the edges to encase the filling completely.
  3. Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the assembled cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the cookies have set.
  4. Cool & Enjoy: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving. Enjoy these delicious Oreo Cheesecake Cookies fresh or store them in an airtight container for later indulgence.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing and smooth filling.
  • You can omit the red food coloring or substitute it with any food coloring of your choice.
  • Seal the cookie dough edges carefully to prevent the cheesecake filling from leaking during baking.
  • Use refrigerated cookie dough for ease and consistent results.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
