Ingredients

  • 20 Oreo cookies (for the crust)

  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)

  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • 1 cup whipped cream (for topping)

  • Optional: 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Tip: You can find a list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.

  2. Make the Crust
    Crush the 20 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Mix the crushed Oreos with the melted butter until fully combined.
    Spoon about one tablespoon of the Oreo mixture into each muffin liner and press down to form the crust at the bottom of each cup.

  3. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
    In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until fluffy.
    Add the sour cream and mix until smooth. If you’re using mini chocolate chips, fold them into the cheesecake mixture.

  4. Assemble the Cookie Cups
    Spoon the cheesecake filling into each cup, filling them almost to the top.

  5. Bake the Cookie Cups
    Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set but slightly jiggly in the center.
    Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool completely before transferring to the refrigerator.

  6. Chill and Serve
    After the cookie cups have cooled, refrigerate them for at least 2 hours or until they are fully chilled.
    Before serving, top each cheesecake cup with whipped cream and sprinkle with crushed Oreos.

Variations

  • Chocolate Chip Option: Fold mini chocolate chips into the cheesecake filling for a little extra chocolatey goodness.

  • Fruit Topping: Instead of crushed Oreos, top the cheesecake cups with fresh berries like raspberries or strawberries for a refreshing twist.

  • Different Cookies: Swap out the Oreos for other cookies like chocolate chip or graham crackers for a unique crust flavor.

  • Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free Oreos for the crust if you need a gluten-free dessert.

Heating/Storage

  • Storage: Store any leftover Oreo Cheesecake Cookie Cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.

  • Freezing: You can also freeze the cookie cups. Place them in an airtight container or wrap them individually in plastic wrap, and they’ll last for up to a month. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
