I didn’t think I liked oatmeal cookies until a couple of years ago. My husband received some as a gift, and he made the mistake of bringing them home. I ate all of them and then proceeded to find myself the perfect oatmeal raisin cookie recipe. I made oatmeal raisin cookies, oatmeal and dried cranberry cookies, oatmeal and dried apple cookies, and oatmeal and chocolate chip cookies. Because… that’s what I do. I obsess about a recipe and make it and make it and make it until I get it just right.

These bars have a great contrast of texture between the cookie and the filling. Oatmeal cookie dough forms the base and top of these bars, with a cheesecake filling mixed throughout. It all comes together for a mouth-watering treat!

Dessert Bars

Oatmeal Cookie and Cream Cheese Bars have the texture of a cookie with ooey, gooey cheesecake goodness running throughout. What could be better?

These bars make a wonderful sweet dessert. Because they are sturdy, they make good lunchbox treats.

I like this 8×8-inch pan for this recipe. You can also use disposable 8×8-inch pans which is great for giving.

I put together a video so you can see exactly how I made this recipe.
