FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

How long do these need to chill?

These need to chill for at least 4 hours for the cheesecake to fully set up.

Can I use Oreos as the crust?

You can but the ratio to sugar and butter would be different than just the graham cracker crumbs as Oreos soak up more butter.

Where do I find chocolate graham crackers?

You will find chocolate graham crackers near where all the other graham crackers are in your grocery store (typically near the cookies or sometimes in the baking aisle.) You will need to crush up those chocolate graham crackers into crumbs to use for this recipe. About 2 sleeves should do it.

Do the bars need to cool before refrigerating?

To prevent cracking in the refrigerator make sure you cool your bars fully on the countertop before placing in the refrigerator.

How do I store Oreo Cheesecake Bars?

These cheesecake bars can be stored in the pan or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. They can also be frozen. To do this. bake and cool as directed. Cut each bar and place them on a baking sheet and place them in the freezer until frozen. Once frozen, remove them and wrap each bar individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag. Remove to refrigerator to thaw before serving.
