- 1 ¾ cups finely crushed Cool Mint Oreos (approx. 25)
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature but not melted
- 3 ¾ cups confectioner’s sugar
- 12 Andes creme de menthe mints, broken into pieces
- 2 tablespoons skim milk
- 1 block of reduced fat cream cheese
- ⅓ cup chocolate chips, melted
- A few drops of green food coloring (optional)
How to make this mint Oreo bars recipe
Break up the Oreo cookies and put them in a food processor.
Pulse for a few seconds until the cookies become crumbs. It is hard to believe this mixture started out the color above!
Mix half of the softened butter (don’t melt it) with the crumbs for the base of the bars.
Line a 9 x 11″ baking pan with foil and press the crumb mixture into the pan and place in the fridge to set until it is firm.
Combine the confectioner’s sugar, the remaining butter, skim milk, broken up Andes mints and the cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat on medium speed until well combined.
It will look similar to frosting with some chunks of the mints in it. If you want a darker green color, you can add a few drops of green gel food coloring.
Spread the cream cheese and sugar mixture on the cookie base.
Melt the chocolate chips. Then drizzle the melted chocolate chips over the top of the bars and put in the fridge to set. They will need to chill at least two hours before serving.
After two hours, remove the no-bake Oreo mint cheesecake bars, cut them into pieces and serve. Then stand back and wait for the compliments!
