Ingredients
For the Crust
- 16 Oreo cookies
- 2 tablespoons(28g) unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling
- 16 ounces (452g) full-fat cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/3 cup (63g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) Pure vanilla extract
- ½ cup (120g) sour cream, at room temperature
- 12 Oreo Cookies, finely crushed
For the Toppings (Optional)
- 1 cup (236ml) heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup (65g) powdered sugar
- Mini Oreos or Crushed Oreo crumbs for garnish
Instructions
Make the Crust
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a cupcake pan with baking liners.
- Grind the Oreos into a fine crumb using a food processor or blender.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs with the melted butter and stir until well combined.
- Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon of the cookie mixture into each cupcake liner, and press into the pan with a spoon. Set aside.
Make the Filling
- In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until well combined and free of any lumps, scraping down the bowl as needed.
- Next beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined. Finally, beat the sour cream until the mixture is completely smooth. Fold in the crushed Oreos.
- Use a large cookie scoop (or ¼ cup measuring cup) to spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners. A heaping cooking scoop should fill the liners nearly full, leaving about ¼-inch at the top.
- Bake at 350°F for 12-15 minutes. The centers of the cheesecake should be slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven and cool completely in the pan. Then refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours prior to serving. Keep stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Add toppings prior to serving.
Make the Whipped Cream
- Prepare the whipped cream. Place the mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes to chill.
- Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and use an electric mixer to beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks start to form.
- Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating at high speed until stiff peaks form.
- Pipe or spoon onto chilled cheesecakes and top with mini Oreos or crushed Oreo cookies.
Notes
- To Store: Refrigerate cooled cheesecakes in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
