Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 18 Golden Oreos

For the strawberry sauce:

  • 1 ½ cups strawberries, diced
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • ½ tsp cornstarch

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ⅓ cup sour cream
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour

For the topping:

  • 8 Golden Oreos, crushed

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Pulse 18 Golden Oreos in a food processor until fine crumbs form.

Mix in melted butter until the crumbs are coated. Press the mixture into an 8-inch baking pan lined with greased foil or parchment.

Bake for 5 minutes, then cool.

Step 2: In a saucepan, combine strawberries, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tbsp water.

Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until softened.

Step 3: Mix lemon juice and cornstarch, then stir into the strawberry mixture. Simmer until thickened.

Blend until smooth, then set aside to cool.

Step 4: In a food processor, blend cream cheese, sour cream, ⅓ cup sugar, vanilla extract, egg, and flour until smooth.

Pour over the cooled Oreo crust and spread evenly.

Step 5: Spoon the strawberry sauce over the cheesecake layer. Bake at 325°F for 36 minutes or until the center slightly jiggles.

Let the bars cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.

Step 6: Sprinkle the crushed Oreos on top and gently press them in.

Cool completely, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before cutting into squares.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Can I use regular Oreos instead of Golden Oreos?

Yes, using regular Oreos will add a chocolatey flavor, which pairs well with strawberries, though Golden Oreos keep it light and summery.

2. Can I make this recipe with frozen strawberries?

Yes, just make sure to thaw and drain them well before using to avoid excess liquid in the sauce.

3. How can I tell when the cheesecake bars are done baking?

The cheesecake is ready when the edges are set, but the center still has a slight jiggle.

4. Can I prepare these bars in advance?

Absolutely! These bars taste great when made a day ahead and chilled overnight.

5. How should I store these cheesecake bars?

Keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
