My Oreo Cheesecake Brownies will be the talk of your next gathering. These cheesecake brownies easily come together in under an hour thanks to store bought brownie mix paired with a homemade cheesecake filling that is loaded with tons of OREO cookies. A quick chill in the fridge and you will be ready to serve and enjoy with those you love.

If you love Oreo’s you will love this recipe for Oreo Cheesecake Brownies. Even if you don’t love Oreo’s I feel confident you will love this delicious mix of a thick rich brownie bottom with a creamy cheesecake filling on top. Trust me, I am not a huge fan of Oreo’s and yet I love these dessert bars. This recipe has a perfect balance between cookie, brownie, and cheesecake.

If you are craving more intense Oreo flavors you should try my OREO Ice Cream or my Oreo Truffles. Both have delicious flavors that are equally delicious to these OREO Brownies!

Why this Recipe Works

Semi-Homemade – I love how you can transform a box of brownie mix by adding in a homemade New York Style Cheesecake filling showcases the best of both worlds—convenience and gourmet flair. This approach saves time while still delivering a bakery-quality dessert that’s bound to impress anyone who tastes it.

Make Ahead – These brownies are ideal for busy schedules because they require chilling time to set, making them the perfect make-ahead treat. Preparing them the day before an event allows the flavors to meld together beautifully, and ensures you have a delicious dessert ready to serve with minimal last-minute effort.

Versatile Serving Options: This dessert is incredibly versatile when it comes to serving. You can enjoy them chilled for a refreshing treat, at room temperature for a softer texture, or even slightly warmed for a gooey, decadent experience. Pair them with a scoop of ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce to elevate the dessert even further. This flexibility makes them a perfect choice for any occasion, whether you’re hosting a formal dinner or enjoying a cozy night in.

Ingredients for OREO Brownies

  • Brownie Mix – I like to use a brownie mix which helps move the prep time along. Make sure you read the box to see what additional ingredients you will need. Most brownie mixes need vegetable oil, water, and an egg.
  • Cream Cheese – 2 blocks of cream cheese is what you will need for the base of the cheesecake filling.
  • Sugar – I like to use granulated sugar for the cream cheese filling.
  • Vanilla Extract – A little goes a long way and adds a nice flavor to the filling.
  • Egg – One egg is all you need to bind the cream cheese and sugar together.
  • Oreos – I like to use about 16 OREO’s for this recipe. That is about a half pack of the cream filled cookies. I use a dozen that are nestled in between the actual brownie and cheesecake filling. These cookies are left whole. The rest are broken into pieces and sprinkle on top.

Directions

left side: metal bowl with brownie mix, oil, water, and egg. Right side: whisk in silky smooth brownie batter.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Line a 9 x 9 metal square baking dish with parchment paper. Then spray with non-stick cooking spray.

Mix together the brownie mix according to the packaging. Then pour the browning batter into the parchment lined baking pan.

left side: paddle attachement mixing egg, vanilla, cream cheese, and sugar. Right side: flat paddle attachement with smoothed cream cheese.

In a separate bowl, using a KitchenAid Stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix together the cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set to the side.

4 process shots layering brownie batter, OREO's, cheesecake, and chopped OREO's.

PRO TIP: Use metal binder clips to hold the parchment paper back while you are filling the baking dish.

Place 12 whole OREO cookies on top of the brownie mix. Then pour the cheesecake filling on top.

Then crush 6 OREO cookies and sprinkle on top of the cheesecake filling.

Bake for 45 minutes or until cheesecake and brownies are set and edges are slightly golden.

Cool on a wire rack until at room temperature and then refrigerate for at least 1-2 hour before serving.

Recipe FAQs

What do cheesecake brownies taste like?

The base of the bars taste like a rich fudge brownie and on top is creamy cheesecake filling. If you love brownies and cheesecake you will love these cheesecake brownies.

How do you soften cream cheese?

I like to place an 12 ounce block of cheesecake on the counter an hour prior to making this recipe. If you are not able to wait that long then you can unwrap the cream cheese on a microwave-safe plate and microwave it on high for 15 seconds OR if you have a soften mode on your microwave use that.

Can you use different types of cookies with cheesecake brownies?

Yes, if you want to switch things up you could use chocolate chip cookies in place of the OREO’s or really any other cookie you might like.

Does brownie cheesecake need to be refrigerated?

Yes, the cheesecake brownies need to be stored in the refrigerator. Make sure you store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days (if they will make it that long because they are irresistible).

Expert Tips and Tricks

Here are a few of my favorite tips and tricks I’ve found helpful to make my Oreo cream cheese brownies recipes.

  • Chocolate Chips – If you want extra sweet you can add in ½ cup of chocolate chips to the brownie batter.
  • Homemade Brownies – If you prefer to make homemade brownies you can make your favorite recipe.
  • Over Mixing – Make sure you do not over mix the cheesecake batter or else you will have cracks in the cheesecake.
  • Doubling – Looking to serve more people? You can double this recipe and use a 9 x 14 baking pan.
  • OREO’s – You can use any type of OREO’s for this recipe. Think of the fun colored holiday OREO’s or even the golden OREO’s for this recipe.
