Ingredients
Scale
- 18 Oreo cookies, finely crushed
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 16 oz (2 blocks) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 6 Oreo cookies, chopped
- Whipped cream or stabilized whipped topping (optional)
- Mini Oreo cookies (optional)
- Festive sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners.
- Mix the crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter until combined like wet sand.
- Press 1–2 tablespoons of the crust mixture into each muffin liner and flatten firmly. Bake for 5 minutes, then cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and lump-free.
- Add sugar and vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing gently to avoid overbeating.
- Stir in sour cream until just combined for a creamy texture.
- Fold in chopped Oreo cookies with a spatula.
- Spoon the cheesecake mixture evenly into the muffin liners, filling nearly to the top.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes until the centers are just set and slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecakes cool inside for 15–20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let them cool completely at room temperature.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Top with whipped cream, mini Oreos, and sprinkles before serving, if desired.
Notes
- Use room temperature cream cheese for the smoothest filling.
- Don’t overmix after adding eggs to prevent air bubbles and cracking.
- Chill overnight for best texture and clean edges.
- These cheesecake bites freeze well (without toppings) for up to 2 months.
- Press crust firmly for a stable base that holds up when unwrapped.
