Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 20 Oreo Cookies (crumbled)
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted Butter (melted)

Filling

  • 16 ounces Cream Cheese (softened)
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream (or Greek yogurt)
  • 1/2 cup Mini Chocolate Chips (optional)

Topping

  • 1 cup Whipped Cream (lightly sweetened)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cheesecake cups.
  2. Prepare the Crust: Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Mix the crumbs thoroughly with melted unsalted butter until well combined.
  3. Form the Crust Cups: Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. Spoon about one tablespoon of the Oreo butter mixture into each liner and press down firmly to create an even crust base for each cup.
  4. Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually blend in the sour cream, mixing until smooth and creamy.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold mini chocolate chips into the cheesecake filling if you desire a bit of extra chocolate texture.
  6. Fill the Cups: Spoon the cheesecake filling evenly over the prepared Oreo crusts in the muffin liners.
  7. Bake: Bake the filled muffin tin in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the centers of the cheesecake cups are just slightly jiggly.
  8. Cool and Chill: Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely at room temperature. Then refrigerate the cheesecake cups for at least one hour to set fully.
  9. Add Topping: Before serving, pipe or dollop the lightly sweetened whipped cream on top of each cheesecake cup for a fluffy finishing touch.

Notes

  • Using sour cream adds a slight tang and creaminess, but Greek yogurt can be substituted for a healthier option.
  • Be sure to fully chill the cheesecake cups to allow them to set firmly.
  • Mini chocolate chips are optional but add delightful texture and chocolate bursts.
  • For best results, use unsalted butter to balance the sweetness.
  • Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
