Cookies and Cream Breakaway ~ A 20 minute, 2 ingredient, sweet and simple dessert filled with Oreo goodness. Yes, another fast and easy dessert recipe that’s perfect for your holiday baking.
Oreos are a favorite in my home. I have to admit I’m not necessarily as big of a fan as Matt and the boys when it comes to eating them straight out of the bag. But when it comes to Oreos in baked goods, I can out eat them like how most birds can eat twice their weight.
I’m keeping with fast and easy, since my workload seems to be multiplying ten-fold lately. It’s so bad that-tsk, tsk; my interview with the third exiting chef-testant of Bravo’s Top Chef Just Dessert was just posted last week alongside the two who were cut in episode 4. Yikes! So for those of you that are following the show and the interviews (posted over at Endless Simmer), I promise that the this week’s interview will be posted by Friday-at the latest.
As you can see, I have a little problem with taking on more than I can manage at times. I’m sure all of you are much better at managing time than I am. That said, I’m also sure we can all find comfort in a sweet and simple dessert that is as easy to make as melt, mix, and chill.
Cookies and Cream Breakaway
Ingredients
- 10oz. Ghirardelli white chocolate chips
- 15 regular size Oreos, plus 3 more for topping
Instructions
Preparation: Line an 8×8 pan with enough parchment or wax paper for a 1 inch overhang on each side.
- Place chocolate in a double boiler over low heat and stir continuously, until chocolate is completely melted. Transfer chocolate to a heat proof bowl and cool for 5 minutes. Add chopped Oreos and stir to combine. Pour mixture into pan. Use a spatula to smooth out top.
- Finely chop remaining Oreos and sprinkle on top. Chill for about 10 minutes until chocolate becomes solid.
- Lift whole bark out of pan by holding onto parchment or wax overhang. Split bark into pieces with a fork.
Notes
A few notes:
- To shave off even more time use mini Oreos to bypass chopping regular size ones.
- If white chocolate doesn’t suit your taste, use any chocolate that does.
- You can leave the top bare but keep in mind it will look slightly grey from the mix of black Oreo crumbs against the white. To avoid the unappetizing grey tint either drizzle the top with chocolate or sprinkle finely crushed Oreos on top.

Oooh dear, this will not help with our little baking with Oreos obsession…especially as we don’t have to bake a thing to enjoy this divine looking stuff..!
Mary says
I’m loving the fast easy, keep’m coming!
Melissa @ thefauxmartha says
I’m not a straight-out-of-the-oreo-bag girl either. But put them in a dessert. How can I say no?!
Lisa {With Style and Grace} says
what a beautiful dessert and love that it requires such few ingredients!
Sylvie @ Gourmande in the Kitchen says
Yup oreos in chocolate, I could inhale a plate of those too.
ella says
This is officially the most dangerous blog ever, omg this is so easy and good but so bad for my diet

Annie says
Yum, those look great, and super easy!
Jennifer (Delicieux) says
So delicious and so easy. What more could you want….other than a huge plate of this yummy treat. Yum!

Two ingredients? I’m on it!

Rosie @ Sweetapolita says
You are so clever, Naomi! Gorgeous styling/photos and such a decadent-but-simple treat. Love it. xo
Kita says
Love the quick and easy posts! Sometimes it’s what we need to get us through (and not one of my guests would ever be able to spot that it was quick!).
I haven’t been watching Just Desserts but now I feel like I’m missing out!!
Susan says
This is bad,very bad. I will probably make this and eat it all by myself in one sitting.
Betty says
Gosh, Naomi, I’m falling in love with you, or at least with your fast&easy recipes. 😀 These barks look and I will try each and everyone of them as soon as possible, hoping they’ll turn out at least half as gorgeous as yours. Keep doing these, please!
barak says
Yammy oreos are my favourite as well..
any orea desert is welcome in my home.. 🙂
Brenda @ a farmgirl's dabbles says
Those photos are lovely, and almost moody (in a very good way). I love cookies and cream – I know these would be a hit around here.
Heather @ CurlyGirl says
These are just beautiful! I would have a hard time stopping eating those. 🙂
Amanda says
Just made this. Sorta dying over how amazing it is. 🙂
Brandi says
You think regular white chocolate chips could be used? I am pretty positive Ghiradelli does not exist where I live. Also, would be it okay to just add the crushed Oreos to the same pot you melted the chocolate in after it cools or no? Thanks…very limited on supplies here 🙂

What a Delicious recipe
Niamh says
Heya i am for the first time here. I came across this
board and I in finding It truly helpful & it helped me
out a lot. I’m hoping to offer one thing back and aid others such as you helped me.
just says
I needed to put you the very small note to say thanks a lot over again for those pleasing methods you have shown on this site. This is quite incredibly open-handed of people like you to allow publicly exactly what a number of people might have supplied for an ebook to generate some profit on their own, certainly given that you could have tried it if you desired. These things also worked to become a good way to fully grasp most people have a similar dream really like my own to see a lot more in terms of this matter. I believe there are several more fun occasions ahead for many who read through your blog.
Susan says
This is brilliant
amy stephens says
Hi! I LOVE this recipe! I was wondering if you would mind my sharing it on my fb page. I would include the link to your blog and give you credit for the picture. I have almost 20k fans…so it should hopefully get you more exposure??? thanks!

CAN WE USE BAKING CHOCOLATE
Brooke says
Do I need a double boiler to melt the chocolate? Or can I just use a normal pot. Thank you!
Kathy says
Naomi, came across your recipe & photo of your Cookies & Cream Oreo Bark. What intrigues me is the accompanying milk bottle. My husband worked for that dairy for more than 40 years. Is it local to you? Where did you find the bottle??
Novella says
I made these and they came out just like the pictures. They were perfect!! They are easy to make too. They are super rich tasting and addicting! I know exactly what i’ll be making for little gifts for the holidays. Thank you Bakers Royal. I LOVE your site even though it is soooo bad for my diet. lol.
Samantha Jameson says
Making this for a Christmas gathering tomorrow. I used a few drops of peppermint extract, and used the holiday peppermint oreos. Drizzled it with chocolate and silver and gold sprinkles on top. Excited to see how it turns out!
Harmony says
This looks amazing! I stumbled across this recipe, if that’s what you can even call it with so few ingredients, mad I HAD to have it right away! So I ran down to Walgreens and grabbed a few Lindt white chocolate bars and 2 small 10ct pkgs of Oreos, I’m sure it’ll turn out great! I will just melt the chocolate super slow and easy so as not to scorch. If they tun out good, then I’ll have to buy the white choc chips called for in this recipe & try that too. Ill come back & review on how they turned out. Yum I cannot WAIT to try this, I love EVERYTHING cookies & cream!
Ayumu says
Does this melt very easily? Because once I took it out of the refrigerator and cut it into squares it went all soft on me.
Abbegail Lenhardt says
Hi!
I made this for my teachers for an end of the year treat to go along with their gift cards. I am sharing it on my food page I made for my Girl Scout Bronze award. ITS AMAZING!
Thanks for sharing it,
Abby L.
Diane says
Do you chop entire oreo with the cream center or just the cookie????? Help!
Min Min says
Thanks for the yummy recipe. I have included it in my Two-Ingredient Recipes blog post.
Carol says
I made this using Holiday Oreo’s, which have red filling. NOT a good idea. The red frosting bled into the white chocolate and they didn’t look very appetizing.
Tia says
I was searching for some easy recipes for homemade holiday gifts for my co-workers and I think I might have found a contender!
xiabbs says
Not only to read need to spreed every one.
Noa Mal says
How do they taste! they look delicious but I am wondering about the final outcome
Danielle :) says
Great idea! Made mine with Mint Oreo’s mixed in dark chocolate for St. Patty’s Day then drizzled with white chocolate – they were a smashing hit and pretty festive too! Thanks 🙂
Jonathan says
If you don’t like white chocolate, I had an idea to use the golden oreos with milk chocolate. I actually tested this a while back, I melted milk chocolate chips and dipped the golden oreos until they were completely covered, stuck in the freezer for about 20mins until they harden and everyone loved them!
Clara Ingewati says
wow…. it’s look heavenly delicious <3
Cassandra Sigler says
Can you just melt the chocolate in a regular pot over low heat? I don’t have a double broiler.
Courtney Bazile says
I was looking online for recipes that I could do for the Christmas holidays and I came across this recipe and I was reading the ingredients and I realized its two ingredients and doesn’t take long to make great recipe and so delicious ?
Aruna says
