Oreo Cheesecake Bites were my sweet tooth’s answer one night after I got a text from a friend, “I need something that’s easy and impossible to mess up… but, like, cute.” I totally get it. You’re scrolling, you want something a little special, not a three-hour kitchen project. And honestly, between making just-okay brownies and falling for another “simple” dessert that’s anything but, I promise you, these are the answer. Get ready to impress yourself (and maybe your friends, if you share).
How to make Mini Oreo Cheesecakes
So, this is actually way less complicated than it sounds. For real. Start with these basic things: Oreo cookies, cream cheese, sugar, eggs, a teeny splash of vanilla, some sour cream, and a little melted butter. The best part? You only need one bowl for the cheesecake filling (bless up).
First, smash up a bunch of Oreos (I just toss ‘em in a zip bag and use a rolling pin). Mix ‘em with the melted butter. Put a heaping spoonful into lined muffin tins. Press it down. That’s your base. Basically, an Oreo sidewalk for all the yum that’s coming.
Next, beat soft cream cheese and a bit of sugar until it’s nice and smooth. Crack in your eggs, one at a time (don’t worry if it gets a little lumpy, it’ll work out). Add your vanilla and sour cream. Then, chop a few more Oreos and fold them into this creamy business.
Spoon the filling over your Oreo beds and bake at 325°F for about 18-22 minutes. Let cool, because hot cheesecake is a weird experience. Chill in the fridge for at least two hours—hardest part, honestly. Peel off the paper. Boom. Oreo Cheesecake Bites, ready to wow.

I brought these to a work gathering and people freaked out. One coworker claimed they ‘tasted like a five-star restaurant’s dessert menu’ and, listen, I’m no pastry chef.
Why This Recipe Works
Look, I’ve tried plenty of “mini” recipes that ended up stuck to pans or just bland. This one’s different because it’s flexible. You don’t need to make a giant cheesecake (which, not gonna lie, always cracks on me). And the Oreos hold everything—no soggy disasters.
If you use cupcake liners, no one is prying goo out with a spoon. Just unwrap and eat. Kids love them. Adults act like kids. Also, you only need common ingredients. Nothing wacky or expensive. Just pantry basics and a little fridge space. Those crushed Oreo bits actually hold onto the creamy filling, giving you that classic cookies ‘n cream vibe but somehow better? Each bite is cheesy, creamy, and chocolatey without being over-the-top sweet. That’s balance, right there.
How to Store Leftover Cheesecake Bites
Don’t leave these out at room temp for long (trust me, sad things happen). Once they’re cool, pop them in a sealable container. Stash them in the fridge. They’ll keep beautifully for about four to five days. If you want to save them longer, go ahead—freeze them! Just wrap them up snug in plastic, toss in a freezer bag, and label.
When you want to eat one, let it sit on the counter for ten minutes or zap it quickly so it’s not ice-cold. But honestly, these Oreo Cheesecake Bites rarely last long enough in my house to make it to the freezer. People sneak them for breakfast. Yes, that counts as dairy.

Other Easy Dessert Recipes
If you’re like me, you want back-pocket treats that don’t take all afternoon. Here are a few favorites:
- Serve Oreo Cheesecake Bites with a drizzle of chocolate sauce and some whipped cream.
- Swap in graham crackers for Oreos if you’re weirdly out (happens!).
- Make them ahead before parties and feel like a baking genius.
- Pair with your morning coffee for breakfast, and no one’s judging.
Folks always ask for the recipe, so keep this one bookmarked.
Can you recommend any other no bake desserts?
You bet I can! The best thing about no-bake treats? They’re basically magic. My top picks: Oreo icebox cake (layers of Oreos and whipped cream—they get soft and dreamy in the fridge). No-bake cheesecake jars, using whatever cookies you love. Or classic peanut butter balls, dipped in chocolate. If you’ve got ten minutes and zero patience for baking, these save the day.
No bake means your oven stays off during heat waves, and honestly, I’m just lazy sometimes. It works.
