Think creamy peanut butter cheesecakes but instead of PB; made with rich & smooth OREO COOKIE BUTTER!! Attention Oreo lovers, this is the ultimate Oreo cheesecake in mini form!
Ingredients:
Crust:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1½ cups crushed Oreos
Cheesecake:
- 2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese, room temperature
- ¾ cup white sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 1 cup oreo butter
- 10 Oreos, roughly chopped
Oreo butter:
- 18 Oreos, crushed
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
Chocolate ganache:
- 4 oz semisweet chocolate (chips or roughly chopped bars)
- 2 oz white chocolate chips
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
Instructions:
Crust:
- In a small bowl, mix together the butter and crushed Oreos. Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners and evenly divide the crust mixture into each well. Refrigerate while you make the cheesecake.
Oreo butter:
- In a small bowl, mix together the crushed Oreos, butter and cream cheese until smooth.
Cheesecake:
- Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees F. In a large bowl, beat your cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add sugar, salt, vanilla, and Oreo butter. Mix until incorporated.
- Slowly add in eggs and sour cream. Beat until smooth. Fold in the crushed Oreos.
- Divide cheesecake batter evenly into each muffin tin well.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes. Cheesecakes should be firm but still wobble in the middle. Cool in the refrigerator, while you make the ganache.
Ganache:
- Pour your chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat your heavy cream until just boiling. (Bubbles should form on the edges of the pan.) Pour over the chocolate. Let it melt the chocolate for a couple minutes, without stirring. Then, stir until smooth.
- Meanwhile, microwave your white chocolate until it is thinner in consistency. I usually microwave for about 20 seconds.
- Once the cheesecakes have cooled down, pour a bit of chocolate ganache on top of a cheesecake, then a bit of the melted white chocolate. Quickly, swirl with a toothpick. Repeat for all the cheesecakes. Let cool, before eating.
