For the Crust
- 20 Oreo Cookies, crushed
- 4 tablespoons Butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling
- 16 oz (450g) Cream Cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 2 Eggs
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 cup crushed Oreo Cookies (for folding into the filling)
- Prepare the Oreo Crust: Crush Oreo cookies finely, then mix with melted butter until the mixture resembles damp sand. Press evenly into mini muffin tins lined with cupcake liners to form the crust base for each cheesecake.
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add granulated sugar, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition. Gently fold in crushed Oreos for texture.
- Assemble and Bake: Pour the cheesecake batter over each Oreo crust in the muffin pan, filling almost to the top. Bake in a preheated oven at 325°F (163°C) for 15-18 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center.
- Chill and Serve: Let the mini cheesecakes cool at room temperature for 10 minutes, then refrigerate for 1-2 hours to fully set. Remove from pan and garnish as desired before serving.
Notes
- Use softened cream cheese to ensure smooth, lump-free filling.
- Press crust firmly into liners to prevent crumbling.
- Do not overbake; slight jiggle in the center indicates perfect doneness.
- Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator to enhance flavor and texture.
- Use fresh, high-quality Oreos for best taste and adjust Oreo quantity to your preferred chocolate intensity.
