Ingredients

Oreo Cheesecake Cupcake Ingredients

  • Oreos – 15 whole, 6 coarsely chopped, and a few extras for “sprinkles” (I actually had enough batter to make about 18 cupcakes so keep a few Oreos on hand (don’t eat them just yet!) in case you’ve got a little extra
  • 2 8-oz packages of cream cheese (1 lb.) – room temperature
  • 1/2 C. sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 C. sour cream
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • cupcake liners
  1. Pre-heat oven to 275 degrees. Add cupcake liners and an Oreo cookie to each tin.

2. Cream the cream cheese until smooth. Add in 1/2 C. of sugar.

3. Beat in vanilla, and then add the eggs, one at a time, beating until well combined (but don’t over mix!). Beat in the sour cream and salt.

4. Stir in chopped Oreo cookies:

6. Sprinkle on a few more Oreo pieces on top (there’s no such thing as too much Oreo, right?)

7. Bake for 20-25 minutes. I pulled mine out of the oven just as they were starting to crack a tiny bit on top.

8. Let them cool on the counter or on wire cooling racks for a bit and then transfer (in tins) to the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving. Overnight is good too, if you can wait that long!
