In the mood for something chocolate but also creamy at the same time? To meet the hankering for something sweet, make Oreo cookie mini cheesecakes to satisfy that sweet tooth with just a few bites!

Ingredients

  • 2 bags of Oreo cookies; you will need 42 Oreos total for this recipe
  • 32 ounces of cream cheese
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • Salt

Steps

Making the Oreo Cookie Mini Cheesecake Batter

  1. Add 36 paper liners to three muffin pan, one liner for each cheesecake.
  2. Place one whole Oreo cookie at the bottom of each liner. This will be your cookie cake crust.
  3. Combine the ingredients:
    • Beat 32 ounces of softened cream cheese in the electric mixer or by hand. Whip until smooth and creamy.
    • Add 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 tsp. of vanilla to cream cheese and mix well.
    • Add 4 eggs to mixture. Consider cracking the eggs into a separate bowl before sliding them into the cookie cake batter to avoid adding a bad egg or shells.
    • Whip 1 cup of sour cream and a pinch of salt to the batter. You can also add cookie crumbs to batter, about 6-8 crushed or fine ground. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.

Creating Cheesecakes

  1. Pour batter over each cookie topped muffin liner. Fill almost to the top, but not so high that the batter spills.
  2. Place muffin tin on top of the cookie sheet. Place in a 275 degree preheated oven. The cookie sheet acts as a protective layer in the event the batter does spill over the top--this will help you avoid mess in your oven.
  3. Bake for 22 minutes. Rotate the pan at least once during the baking cycle.
  4. Remove from oven. Allow cakes to cool before transferring to the refrigerator. Leave in the refrigerator for at least four hours (or overnight) before serving cold.
