Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 24 pieces Oreo cookies Regular, not double stuffed
  • 6 tablespoons Melted butter For binding the crust
For the Filling
  • 16 ounces Cream cheese Room temperature for smooth mixing
  • 2/3 cup Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Sour cream Can substitute with Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 large Egg Room temperature
  • 3 bars Chopped Snickers bars Add small and larger pieces for texture

Method
 

Make the Oreo Crust
  1. Crush the Oreo cookies until they resemble fine crumbs.
  2. Stir the melted butter into the crushed Oreos until the mixture looks like damp sand.
  3. Spoon the mixture into lined muffin cups and press it down firmly.
  4. Bake the crust in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
  5. Remove from the oven and let the crust cool while preparing the filling.
Prepare the Filling
  1. In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
  2. Add sour cream and vanilla, mixing until well combined.
  3. Add the egg and mix just until incorporated, taking care not to overmix.
  4. Fold in the chopped Snickers bars.
Bake the Cheesecakes
  1. Spoon the filling over the cooled Oreo crusts, filling each cup almost to the top.
  2. Bake at 325°F (165°C) for 16 to 20 minutes until the centers are set but still slightly jiggly.
  3. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecakes sit for 10 minutes.
  4. Move to the counter to cool fully and then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  5. Top with a drizzle of caramel and a few extra peanuts before serving.

Notes

For variations, consider different crusts like chocolate graham crackers or adding mini chocolate chips to the filling. Adjust Snickers size according to the audience (smaller for kids).
