The Ultimate Oreo Cheesecake Experience

These Mini Oreo Cheesecake Bites start with a whole Oreo as the base, creating a sturdy, flavorful crust. The cheesecake filling is rich and smooth, made with cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. But what makes these bites truly special are the generous Oreo cookie crumbs folded into the filling, giving each bite an extra punch of chocolatey, creamy goodness. For an added touch of fun, sprinkle some more Oreo crumbs on top before baking to make them look as good as they taste.

Once baked and chilled, these mini cheesecakes develop the perfect texture – firm yet creamy, with the satisfying crunch of Oreo at the bottom. You can dress them up with whipped cream and extra crushed Oreos, or enjoy them just as they are.

Recipe: Mini Oreo Cheesecake Bites

Ingredients:
For the Crust:

• 16 whole Oreos (one for each cheesecake)

For the Cheesecake Filling:

• 16 ounces cream cheese, softened (two 8-ounce packages)
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 whole eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup Oreo cookie crumbs (chopped into both large and small pieces)
• Additional Oreo crumbs for topping

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven: Set it to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners and place one whole Oreo at the bottom of each liner.
2. Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Gently fold in the chopped Oreo crumbs.
3. Assemble: Spoon about two tablespoons of the cheesecake filling on top of each Oreo in the cupcake liners. Sprinkle more Oreo crumbs over the tops.
4. Bake: Bake for 14-16 minutes, or until the centers are just set. Allow the cheesecakes to cool for at least 30 minutes in the pan.
5. Chill: Transfer the cheesecakes to the fridge and chill for at least two hours to allow them to firm up.
6. Optional: Before serving, top with whipped cream and extra crushed Oreos for a fun, decorative finish.
