Who Invented Oreos?

Oreos were introduced by the Nabisco company in 1912. Although it’s not clear who first designed the cookie, or even how the name “Oreo” came about, they were very similar to another cookies and cream biscuit at the time, called the Hydrox. Today’s Oreo cookies were designed by Sam Porcello, who slightly modified the original recipe to create the snack we know and love.

Variations and Substitutions for Oreo Cookies with Cream Cheese Filling

Looking to make this Oreo cheesecake cookie recipe a little healthier? Try these easy tips:

• Butter: You can use salted or unsalted butter, or you can use a low-fat butter alternative.
• Sugar: A low calorie sugar alternative can be great in this recipe. Use a one-for-one swap-out brand.

Step 1: Prep the Baking Sheets with Parchment Paper or Mat

First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a silicone mat or cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. If you’re using whole Oreos, put them in a Ziploc bag and roll them with a rolling pin to crush them.

Step 2: Add the Dry Ingredients to Make the Dough

With an electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter, cream cheese, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the all-purpose flour to the cream cheese mixture, and mix until combined. Fold crushed Oreo crumbs into the batter.

Step 3: Bake Oreo Cheesecake Cookies on a Lined Baking Sheet

Scoop the dough with a cookie scoop, or spoon a few tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake the cookie dough balls for 12-15 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking tray for 5 minutes before moving them to a rack to cool completely.
