Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (15.35 oz) Oreo cookies, divided
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • Extra crushed Oreos for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Take about 24 Oreo cookies and place them in a food processor. Pulse until finely crushed. Alternatively, crush them in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with the melted butter, mixing until the crumbs resemble wet sand.
  4. Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners or grease it directly.
  5. Evenly distribute the Oreo mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup, pressing down firmly to create a solid base.
  6. Bake the cookie crusts for about 5-7 minutes, or until set. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  7. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy (about 2-3 minutes).
  8. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, beating until well combined and fluffy.
  9. Add the egg and beat on low speed just until incorporated, being careful not to overmix.
  10. Gently fold in the whipped topping and mini chocolate chips (if using).
  11. Fill each cookie cup with the cheesecake mixture, about 3/4 full.
  12. Tap the muffin tin on the counter to remove air bubbles.
  13. Bake for an additional 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is slightly jiggly.
  14. Let cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours until completely set.
  15. Once chilled, sprinkle crushed Oreos on top and add a dollop of whipped topping if desired.
  16. Serve chilled, perfect for parties or as a sweet treat at home.

Notes

  • For best results, ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing.
  • These cookie cups can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
