Instructions

First, preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.

Place one Oreo in the bottom of each muffin liner.

Then, make cheesecake filling. Beat room temperature cream cheese in stand mixer for 2 minutes or until completely creamy.

Add in granulated sugar and sour cream. Beat until no clumps of cream cheese remain.

Next, add in vanilla extract and eggs. Beat until just combined. Do not over mix eggs.

Fold in crushed Oreos.

Add cheesecake filling on top of Oreo in muffin liners.

Bake for 15 to 16 minutes or until cheesecakes are just slightly wobbly when pan is shaken.

Finally, remove from oven. Allow cheesecakes to cool at room temperature for 1 hour. Then transfer to the fridge to chill at least 2 hours up to overnight.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Room Temperature is Non-Negotiable 🌡️
Allow cream cheese and eggs to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before mixing to ensure a smooth, lump-free batter that bakes evenly without overmixing.
Crush Oreos Strategically 🍪
For the crust, pulse whole Oreos in a food processor until you achieve a sand-like texture with some small chunks remaining—this creates that essential crunch while keeping pieces visible.
Don't Overmix the Filling 🥄
Mix ingredients on low speed just until combined after adding each component; overmixing incorporates too much air, causing cracks and a dense texture rather than creamy smoothness.
Use a Water Bath Substitute 💧
For mini cheesecakes in muffin tins, place the tray on a larger baking sheet filled with hot water; this gentle, moist heat prevents browning and ensures even, gentle cooking in just 25 minutes.
Chill Before Decorating ❄️
Refrigerate the baked cheesecakes for at least 2 hours before topping with whole Oreos or frosting; this firms the structure and prevents your decorative elements from sinking into the warm filling.
