Ingredients
(Tip: You can find the complete list of ingredients and their measurements in the recipe card below.)
Crust:
24 Oreo cookies
¼ cup (60g) unsalted butter, melted
Filling:
2 cups (480ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
½ cup (60g) powdered sugar
16 oz (450g) cream cheese, softened
½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped
Topping:
Additional whipped cream for piping
Whole Oreo cookies for garnish
Oreo crumbs for the sides
Directions
Prepare the Crust:
Crush 24 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
In a medium bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs with the melted butter until well mixed.
Press the mixture firmly into the base of an 8-inch (20 cm) springform pan to form an even layer.
Place the pan in the freezer for 15 minutes to set the crust.
Make the Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
Carefully fold in the roughly chopped Oreo cookies, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the filling.
Assemble the Dessert:
Remove the crust from the freezer and spread the filling evenly over the crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Add the Topping:
Once set, pipe additional whipped cream over the top of the dessert as desired.
Garnish with whole Oreo cookies and sprinkle Oreo crumbs along the sides for decoration.
Serve:
Carefully remove the dessert from the springform pan.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!

Prep the Oven and Phyllo Dough:
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Trim phyllo sheets to fit your baking dish (typically 9×13-inch). Keep sheets covered with a damp towel while working to prevent drying.

Brush the bottom of the dish with melted butter.
-
Layer 8–10 sheets of phyllo, brushing each with butter.
-
Sprinkle 1/3 of the nut mixture evenly over the dough.

Repeat with 5–6 more sheets, then another 1/3 of the nuts. Repeat once more and top with the final 8–10 buttered phyllo sheets.

Cut and Bake:
-
Cut the assembled baklava into diamond or square shapes using a sharp knife.

Use a mix of nuts for depth of flavor.
-
Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to a week.
-
Don’t refrigerate, as it can make the phyllo soggy.
