Oreo Dessert: 5 Stupidly Easy You NEED To Make

Alright, stop everything. Are you having one of those days where only something chocolatey, crunchy, and creamy will do? Yeah, me too. And honestly, nothing hits the spot quite like an Oreo.

But we’re not just talking about twisting and dunking here (though, respect). We’re talking about next-level, “why-are-you-so-good” desserts that are embarrassingly easy to throw together. Seriously, if you can crush a cookie and stir stuff, you’re basically a pastry chef. Let’s get into it!

Why Oreos Are Basically Happiness in a Packet

To be honest, an Oreo Dessert is not merely a cookie. It’s a core memory. It tastes like being a kid, dunking them in milk until they’re just about to fall apart. It’s that perfect combo of crisp cookie and sweet cream that just makes everything feel better.

And the best part? They’re the ultimate baking cheat code. You don’t need fancy skills. Just a pack of Oreos and a few other simple ingredients can turn into magic. They’re the perfect little pick-me-up for when life gets a bit blah.

5 Simple Oreo Dessert Recipes You Can Make in Minutes

1. Oreo Truffles-A Bite-Sized Little Show-Off

These little guys are my secret weapon. They look like you spent all day in the kitchen, but they’re a total no-bake scam. Perfect for potlucks, gifts, or eating straight from the fridge at midnight.

What You’ll Need:

• A whole package of Oreos (about 36)
• 1 block (8 oz) of cream cheese, softened (just leave it on the counter for a bit!)
• 1 bag of chocolate chips (choose milk, dark, or any variety you enjoy!)

How to Make ‘Em:

• Pulverize those cookies! Smash the entire pack of Oreos (filling and all!) into fine crumbs. A food processor is magic here, or you can go old-school with a bag and a rolling pin (very therapeutic).
• Mush it together. In a bowl, mix the Oreo dust with the softened cream cheese until it’s one big, black, delicious lump.
• Roll ’em up. Break off small portions and form them into spheres. Pop them on a tray and stick them in the fridge for about 30 minutes to chill out.
• Chocolate dip! Melt your chocolate chips. Then, dip each ball in, let the extra drip off, and put it back on the tray. You can drizzle more chocolate on top or sprinkle some leftover cookie crumbs for looks.
• Let them sit. Wait patiently(ish) for the chocolate to harden. Avoid devouring them all at the same time.

2. No-Churn Oreo Ice Cream Cake

This is the ultimate “I want to impress people, but I also want to nap” dessert. It’s so easy and always gets massive “oohs” and “aahs.”

What You’ll Need:

• 24 Oreos, crushed up
• ½ gallon of vanilla ice cream, slightly softened (so it’s easy to spread)
• Chocolate syrup (the more, the merrier)

How to Make It:

• Make the crust. Press most of your crushed Oreos into the bottom of a cake pan to make a crust. Save some for the top!
• Ice cream layer. Plop the softened ice cream on top of the crust and spread it out evenly.
• Enhance the dessert. Liberally drizzle chocolate syrup over the ice cream and sprinkle the leftover Oreo crumbs on top.
• Freeze it solid. Put the complete thing in the freezer for no less than 3 hours. This is the hardest part—waiting.

3. Oreo Stuffed Brownies

Because brownies are great, but brownies with a surprise Oreo inside? Mind. Blown. It’s a fudgy, crunchy, chocolate explosion.

What You’ll Need:

• 1 box of your favorite brownie mix (plus the eggs/oil it needs)
• 12 whole Oreos

How to Make ‘Em:

• Mix it up. Follow the box instructions to make the brownie batter. It’s easy.
• Layer and hide. Pour half the batter into a greased pan. Lay your whole Oreos down like little edible islands. Pour the rest of the batter on top, hiding them completely.
• Bake! Bake it as directed on the box. Let it cool before you cut it, or you’ll have a gooey mess (a delicious mess, but a mess nonetheless).

4. Oreo Cheesecake Bars

All the glorious, creamy goodness of cheesecake without the stress of making a whole one. The Oreo crust is a game-changer.

What You’ll Need:

• 18 Oreos, crushed into crumbs
• 2 blocks (16 oz) of cream cheese, softened
• ½ cup of sugar
• 2 eggs

How to Make ‘Em:

• Crust time. Press your Oreo crumbs into a baking dish to form the bottom layer.
• Creamy filling. With a mixer, beat the cream cheese and sugar until it’s smooth. Beat in the eggs until they’re all combined.
• Bake it. Pour the mixture onto your crust and bake at 325°F for around 40-45 minutes, until it has set.
• Chill, literally. You HAVE to let these cool down and then chill in the fridge before you slice them. It’s worth the wait, I promise.

5. The Ultimate Oreo Milkshake

This isn’t just a milkshake. It’s a meal. It’s so thick and cookie-filled, you might need a fork.

What You’ll Need:

• 4-5 Oreos
• 2 big scoops of vanilla ice cream
• A splash of milk

How to Make It:

• Blend! Throw everything into a blender. Blend until it’s smooth but still thick.
• Go crazy with toppings. Pour the mixture into a glass, garnish with whipped cream, and crush an extra Oreo on top. Stick a whole cookie on the side for flair. You’ve earned it.

My Pro-Tips for Oreo Glory

• The Smash: The easiest way to crush Oreos? Keep them in their packaging and crush them using a rolling pin. Less mess, more fun.
• Get Creative: Try using different Oreo flavors! Mint Oreos in the brownies? Golden Oreos in the cheesecake? Yes, please.
• Chill Out: For the truffles and cheesecake bars, don’t skip the chilling step. It makes all the difference for the perfect texture.
