Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
4 fresh glazed donuts, sliced in half horizontally
8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup whipped cream or frozen whipped topping, thawed
1/2 cup crushed Oreo cookies (about 4–5 cookies), plus extra for garnish
Optional toppings
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup for drizzling
2 tablespoons crushed Oreo cookies for garnish
1 tablespoon powdered sugar for dusting
Directions
In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with a hand mixer until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined. This creates a light and fluffy cheesecake filling.
Stir in the crushed Oreo cookies and mix until evenly distributed throughout the filling.
Slice the glazed donuts horizontally so each donut forms a top and bottom “bun”.
Place the bottom half of a donut on a serving plate. Spoon or pipe a generous layer of Oreo cheesecake filling on top.
Sprinkle a little extra crushed Oreo on the filling if desired.
Place the top half of the donut over the filling to create a donut “burger”.
Repeat with the remaining donuts and filling.
Finish by garnishing with extra crushed Oreo cookies, a light dusting of powdered sugar, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Chocolate Lovers Version
Add 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips to the cheesecake filling and drizzle melted chocolate over the finished donut burger.
Strawberries and Cream
Replace the crushed Oreo cookies with 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh strawberries and add a drizzle of strawberry syrup.
Cookies and Cream Extreme
Mix extra Oreo crumbs into the whipped cream before folding it into the cheesecake mixture for an even stronger cookies-and-cream flavor.
Peanut Butter Twist
Blend 2 tablespoons of smooth peanut butter into the cheesecake filling and top with crushed chocolate cookies.
Mini Dessert Sliders
Use mini donuts instead of regular ones to create bite-sized dessert sliders that are perfect for parties.
Storage/Reheating
Storage
Store assembled donut burgers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The donuts may soften slightly, but the flavor will still be delicious.
Make Ahead
You can prepare the Oreo cheesecake filling up to 24 hours in advance and keep it refrigerated. Assemble the donut burgers just before serving.
Freezing
Freezing is not recommended because the whipped cream filling can lose its texture after thawing.
Reheating
This dessert is meant to be served chilled or at room temperature and does not require reheating.
