When in doubt, make cheesecake...

It was my sons birthday on Saturday, and it was a celebration just with the four of us. How small a cake could I make well really little as it turns out. I have this 4 in spring form pan that I made 1/2 the recipe below and the remainder I made into cupcake size. Mmmmmmmmmmmm is all I can say.


Individual Mini Oreo Cheesecakes

This is today’s version of the Oreo Cheesecakes, I’ve made several different kinds, just slight differences. They are all GOOD. I like making them in cupcake form because they are just great for quick “controlled “ snacks

3 pkg. (8oz./250g.) cream cheese, softened
3/4c. sugar
3 eggs
24 Oreo cookies
1/4c. chocolate chips (optional)
Whipped cream (optional)

Line 24 cupcake tins with cupcake wrappers

Place 1 Oreo Cookie in the bottom (you can break these up if you like) this is the bottom crust.

Beat cream cheese and sugar until well blended.
Add eggs one at a time and mix well.
Spoon into cuptins.
Bake @ 350 for 15-20 Min.
Place in refrigerator for at least one hour to firm up.
*Optional
Drizzle with melted chocolate, and top with spoon full of whipping cream.

I don’t top unless it’s a special occasion and I prefer to use a chocolate covered strawberry instead of the drizzled chocolate and then the whip cream.

I also like to add those little snack Oreos into the batter after I have poured them into the cupcake tins. You just can’t mess these up. They are great little treats.


Again I don't know how I got all this underlined stuff but it's there.
