When we lived in Washington, DC we would frequent a take-out place I used to go to when I was in college called Wisemiller’s Deli [Wisey’s for short]. They have two things that any college student in the know would have to have, a sandwich called the Chicken Madness [coming soon to a blog near you!] and these amazing Oreo Chunk Cookies. They take Oreo crumbs and mix it into the batter until the whole cookie is Oreo flavored and then they would add in Oreo chunks to it. So you would have a delicious Oreo Cookie Cookie! Since that looks like I accidentally wrote the word cookie twice, I call them Oreo Chunk Cookies. Standard operating procedure would be to call the store [it was also a grocery store for college kid essentials like chips, beer and soda] and tell them you wanted a sandwich and then ask if you were lucky enough for any cookies to be left over. These cookies were so delicious they actually made an appearance later in our lives as part of our wedding favors as well.
Today these cookies are making an appearance in cheesecake form for my sweet husband’s birthday. Cheesecake is his absolute favorite dessert, so when I asked him what flavor he wanted, he immediately said “Peanut butter…no Oreo…no! Oreo Cookie Cookie!” What the birthday boy wants, the birthday boy gets!
This cheesecake is amazing and you’ll love every bite! This tray was able to make 48 bites. I left half as is and the second half I piped melted semisweet chocolate over. My husband’s office enjoyed those chocolate covered ones!

I would normally have it all broken down in steps for you, but it is a basic cheesecake construction and I was in the middle of 8 recipes at once for the big birthday dinner. He didn’t request an easy meal! We had Toasted Mexican Rice, Guapo’s Salsa, Homemade Mexican Lasagna made with fresh tortillas and a jumbo pico salad. Even writing that all out makes me tired again! 
Try the cheesecake and the cookies! It may be hard to part with the cookies by putting them in the cheesecake! Luckily we still have about half a tray left, so I am going to be enjoying these all week! If only I made more desserts! Sheesh 😉
Hey Sabrina I’m eating the oreo chunk cookies from that very same deli Wisemillers one of my UPS drivers brought them to me, which made me look for this recipe how crazy is that. These cookies are so freaking good.
That’s awesome!!
Where do the chunks come get added. I see them in the ingredients but not the recipe. I. Going to add them right before I put the filling in the crust
So sorry about that! I updated the recipe. You’ll want to add the chunks to the top 🙂
These look delish! For the crust do I include the oreo fillings too or just the cookie part?
Cat, this recipe actually uses a baked oreo chunk cookie as the base. But if you want to use regular oreo cookies I would definitely suggest the whole cookie, not just the cookie part. 🙂
Oh my gosh girl! This looks and sounds amazing! I would love to try these sometime.
Thanks!
Yummy! This looks like such a good dessert! Pinning this for later!
Thanks so much for the pin! I hope you love it!
These look amazing! I love the idea of adding the cookie chunks!
Thanks!
Who doesn’t like cheesecake? I can’t think of anything better than Oreo cheesecake!
I know, it is almost like cheating, right?
This recipe combines two of my favorite things: Oreos and cheesecake! It’s another great recipe!
Thanks! Glad you enjoy following along 🙂
These contain two of my weaknesses – Oreos and cheesecake! Ahh, I cannot wait to make these and eat them!
You and me both! I am a sucker for an Oreo especially.
Oreo and Cheesecake sound absolutely divine! I would totally gobble this up for summer!
Haha, thank you!
Oreo cheesecake for the win! Best cheesecake flavour ever. Thanks so much for sharing!
Your spicy buddha bowl looks amazing!
Cheesecake is the best thing ever! As much as I adore it, I have never had it with oreo. It would appear I am really missing out.
Yes! I just made the same face people make when I say I’ve never seen Star Wars or Harry Potter!
Believe me, I don’t mind the word “cookie” appearing twice in a title! 😀 BUT I think I love your cheesecake bars version just a bit more. A lot more! I am a cheesecake lovah!
Hahaha, I know right? The more cookie that can exist in a recipe, the better!
Oh my!! I am so making these for my husband. He will be so happy that I read your blog today 🙂
Haha, that’s awesome 🙂
That is a really fun idea! Funny how those silly things you ate in college stick with you.
yeah, I still wish it were close by! I heard they got so popular that they closed down the grocery part and made it into one big take out place. So it must be good!
Can I just come to your house? I LOVE cheesecake but for some reason always buy them and have never made them. I will cook a multi course meal but my friends and family have to bring the dessert, baking and me have never gotten along well! LOL
This looks DELISH!
Haha. I used to do the same. My husband loves dessert so I’ve learned to love making it 🙂
Anything with oreos is an instant winner for me. These squares look amazing and I bet taste incredible.
Thanks!
OH my! Although I stopped eating Oreo’s years ago (I was addicted Lol) I would totally have a few of these squares. Yum
So, I was thinking on starting a diet here soon. I may have to hold off on that until I can sample these for myself 😉
Haha there is always Monday 😉
Omg these look so delicious. I love cheesecake recipes and can’t wait to try this one.
I hope you love it as much as we do!
These look insanely good! I love your technique of incorporating the Oreos and creating something wholly new in the process.
Thanks!
This is just fantastic. I love Oreos and cheesecake I can’t wait to make this.
Hope you love it!
Oh my goodness! These sound delicious and look even better. I am going to have to try them!
Thank you! Hope you love them!
Oh my goodness. This looks absolutely amazing. I need some of this in my life Pronto!
I try 😉
Sabrina,
What a sweet treat to make for your sweetie for his birthday!
I like the concept of the double Oreo, and a cheesecake sounds divine right now.
Thanks
Aww thank you! He is such a sweetheart it makes me want to spoil him!
These sound so delicious! I want just the cookies too, I’d eat them all before they’d get on the cheesecake squares!
Thanks again for sharing on Try a Bite Tuesday link up!
The cookies alone are so good they were one of two cookies as our wedding favors! The other was an oatmeal strawberry creme
Outstanding! You have made a delicious sweet nom nom using my tow favorite foods – cookies and cheesecake! I can’t wait to make this.
Haha glad to be of assistance!
I’m drooling! Those look amazing! and nice and simple, too. My daughter is an Oreo’s fanatic, so I’m definitely going to make these. Thank you!
Yay! I hope she loves them as much as my Oreo fanatic does!
Oh those look dangerous lol I have such a sweet tooth when I’m pregnant I could devour those!
If I were pregnant I would eat the whole pan!
I need that in my life immediately! The only thing better than cheesecake is cheesecake with cookies in it! Yum!
Hahaha thanks!
Oreos are my weakness. I cold eat these ALL myself 🙂
Me too! And the Oreo chunk cookies somehow make them even better!
