Oreo No Bake Cookies are made with oats, crushed Oreos, and pudding mix for an easy cookies-and-cream treat. With simple pantry ingredients and no oven required, they come together in just minutes!

I’ve been making traditional No Bake Cookies with chocolate, peanut butter and oats for many years and we all love them. I recently found this recipe for Lemon No Bake Cookies and they quickly became one of my favorite cookies ever. I decided to try that same recipe with Oreo instant pudding and I’ve made three batches in the last week because they just keep disappearing. Warning: don’t make these unless you’re prepared to eat at least five or six. Or ten.

Recipe Highlights

Loaded with Cookies & Cream Flavor – Oreo pudding mix and crushed Oreo cookies give every bite rich, creamy cookies-and-cream taste.
Soft, Chewy Texture – Quick oats create the perfect chewy no-bake cookie texture while the Oreo pieces add a little crunch.
Fast Sweet Fix – These cookies come together in about 10 minutes and set up quickly, making them perfect for last-minute dessert cravings.

Ingredients for Oreo No Bake Dessert

Sugar – Adds sweetness and helps create the classic smooth, chewy no-bake cookie texture.

Butter – Gives the cookies a rich flavor and helps bind the ingredients together.

Milk – Helps dissolve the sugar and creates the creamy base for the cookies.

Oreo Instant Pudding Mix – Adds bold cookies-and-cream flavor and helps make the cookies extra soft and creamy.

Quick Oats – Provide the hearty, chewy texture that no-bake cookies are known for.

Vanilla – Enhances the sweet Oreo flavor and adds warmth to the cookies.

Oreo Cookies – Add crunchy cookie pieces and extra cookies-and-cream flavor throughout the recipe.

Tips & Tricks for making No-Bake Oreo Cookies

Boil the mixture for exactly 5 minutes – Less time can leave the cookies too soft, while overboiling can make them dry and crumbly instead of chewy.
Whisk in the pudding mix immediately after removing from heat – This keeps the pudding from clumping and gives the cookies their smooth cookies-and-cream flavor.
Use quick oats, not old-fashioned oats – Quick oats absorb the mixture better and create the soft, classic no-bake cookie texture this recipe needs.
Stir in the crushed Oreos last and gently – Adding them at the end keeps larger cookie pieces intact so you get visible Oreo chunks in every bite.

How do you store these no-bake cookies?

These Oreo No Bake Cookies will keep well in an airtight container at room temperature for about 3–4 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week if you prefer a firmer texture.

They also freeze really well—store them in a freezer-safe container or bag with parchment between layers, and they’ll last about 2–3 months. Thaw at room temperature for a bit before serving so they soften back to that chewy texture.

¾ cup butter
⅔ cup milk

They also freeze well for 2–3 months—just thaw at room temperature before eating.

Nutrition

Can I use regular oats instead of quick oats?

Different recipes will call for different kinds of oats, but to make the best No Bake Cookies, you should use quick oats. Using different kinds of oats will change the texture of the cookies, and you risk them not setting up right. Being the main ingredient in this recipe, it’s important to get the right kind of oats.

Do I have to use Oreo pudding mix?

Yes for the signature cookies-and-cream flavor, but you can substitute another instant pudding flavor if needed (just know the taste will change).

Why didn’t my cookies set up properly?

They likely didn’t boil long enough or the mixture wasn’t fully brought to a rolling boil—this step is key for helping them firm up.

Can I skip the crushed Oreos?

Yes, but they add texture and stronger Oreo flavor, plus they make the cookies look more visually appealing.

Will no bake cookies stick to foil?

I’ve seen these cookies stick to aluminum foil before, but it doesn’t always. To avoid the hassle and the risk I would recommend using wax paper or parchment paper as that’s what’s always worked for me!
