The filling, made with cream, cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and sweetened condensed milk, offers a rich and velvety texture with a subtle tangy sweetness.
You’ll need:
- 1 package (14.3-ounce) of Oreo cookies, divided into 12 cookies and the remainder

- 1 cup of heavy whipping cream
- 8 ounces of cream cheese, softened
- 3 tablespoons of sugar

Substitutions And Additions
HOT FUDGE TOPPING: If you love chocolate, then you have to try this dessert drizzled with hot fudge sauce.
The combination of Oreos and chocolate sauce is heavenly.
WHIPPED CREAM: This is so good with a dollop of whipped cream or Cool Whip whipped topping on top!
It adds extra light and fluffy creaminess. And if you have little ones around, it’s fun to have them decorate: add whipped cream with sprinkles or more Oreo crumbles.
OTHER FLAVORS OF OREOS: For a tasty twist, try this recipe with different flavors of Oreos. Mint Oreos or Chocolate Oreos are popular alternatives.
How To Make This Easy Frozen Oreo Dessert Recipe
Let’s walk through the steps for making this simple, yet decadent dessert.
STEP ONE: Remove 12 Oreos from the package. Set these aside. These will be crushed for an Oreo topping.
Crush the remaining Oreos until they are finely ground.
OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS
You can crush your cookies by placing them in a Ziploc bag and crushing them with a rolling pin or by placing them in a food processor.
STEP TWO: Mix half of the crushed Oreo crumbs with the melted butter. Press the Oreo crust mixture into a 9×9-inch square baking pan to form the crust.
Place the pan in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling. Set aside the rest of the Oreo crumbs.
STEP THREE: In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set this aside.
STEP FOUR: In another large bowl, cream together the cream cheese and sugar. Then, add the vanilla and mix together.
PRO TIP:
Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature so that you don’t have lumps in your creamy dessert.
STEP FIVE: Using a spatula, gently fold the heavy whipping cream into the cream cheese mixture.
STEP SIX: Add the sweetened condensed milk and continue mixing gently until fully combined.
STEP SEVEN: Mix in the remaining Oreo cookie crumbs.
STEP EIGHT: Spread the mixture evenly over the cookie crust.
STEP NINE: Crush the rest of the cookies and sprinkle them on top of the filling. These Oreos should be crushed up into medium-sized chunks.
STEP TEN: Cover the pan with foil and place it in the freezer until solid. Freeze for at least three to four hours, preferably overnight.
Remove the pan from the freezer 15 minutes before serving. This will give the dessert time to soften slightly so that it’s easier to cut.
PRO TIP:
If you’re having trouble cutting your dessert, try dipping your knife in hot water first.

I had your recipe for a blueberry and cake mix cobbler and it was a hit. I’ve lost the recipe. Help!
Layne Kangas says
Here you go, enjoy! 🙂 Blueberry Cobbler Recipe

This is literally the first review I have ever left in a food blog but I felt compelled. I am a vegan. I stumbled across this recipe on Facebook and wanted to see if I could veganize it because I haven’t had anything like this in over 6 years. I made this once and my partner would not stop raving about it. It was super easy to swap out the dairy ingredients for non-dairy ones. And Oreos are already vegan, thank God! I have been asked by my partner so many times over the past few weeks to make it again that the second round is in the freezer now! Just wanted to say that this recipe is amazing and easily made vegan because of all the fantastic products available now.
Layne Kangas says
YAY! That is absolutely fantastic. And thank goodness Oreos are already vegan, that would be awful to give them up! LOL
Jacque says
If I double the recipe, will it fit into a 13×9? I’m trying to avoid using 2 small pans, but need a recipe larger than 1 pan.
Layne Kangas says
I have honestly never made it in a 13×9, so I can’t say exactly how it will turn out, but I think you should be able to double it and have it be ok! Enjoy 🙂
Donna McWaters says
Could you make this with Nutter butter peanut butter cookies? Not a big fan of Oreos, even though it sounds delicious!
Layne Kangas says
I’m sure you could, although I have not tried it that way yet.
Brianna says
Salted or unsalted butter please
Layne Kangas says
Unsalted! Enjoy 🙂
Christa says
