OREO Strawberry Smoothie Cheesecake Bars

Please See Other Recipes

The filling in my OREO strawberry smoothie cheesecake bars tastes just like a cold and creamy fruit smoothie.

I love using sweet and juicy strawberries in this recipe, but you could easily mix it up by adding the fresh or frozen fruit of your choice. Blueberries, raspberries or blackberries would also taste incredible. You could even go totally nuts and use a combination of your favorite berries to created a mixed berry smoothie treat.
While I’m usually a fan of sticking to my tried and true summer recipes, I think it’s so much fun to experiment and create new family classics.
You really can’t go wrong when you’re whipping up desserts with amazing ingredients like OREO Cookies!
My daughter, Kara, even got in on the recipe creation fun by suggesting that we used some crushed OREO Cookies to garnish the top of our bars. She said that the OREO sprinkles would make the bars “extra-cute” and she was right!

• 24 OREO Cookies
