Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two 12 count cupcake pans with 18 liners.

For the crust: In a food processor or blender, pulse the whole Oreos into a find crumb. Stir the cookie crumbs and melted butter together in a medium sized bowl. Press 1 heaping T of mix into the bottom of each liner. You should have enough for 16-18 cups. Bake in batches for 5 minutes and allow to cool slightly as you prepare the filling.

For the filling: In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until completely smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Add sugar and yogurt and beat on medium speed until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract and mini chocolate chips.

Spoon batter into the crusts until nearly full. Bake each pan for 20-23 minutes. The centers will still be slightly jiggly. The centers may also have risen up but they will deflate as the cheesecakes cools. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely at room temperature, at least 1 hour. Transfer to refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours.

Right before serving, top each cheesecake with salted caramel and additional chocolate chips, if desired. Cover cheesecakes tightly and store in refrigerator for up to 5 days. Store (without caramel) in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw in refrigerator overnight.

Additional Notes: Sour cream may be used in place of yogurt.
