Ingredients

• Crust:
• 9 whole Oreos
• 2 Tbsp melted butter
• Filling:
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
• 1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• Mousse:
• 3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate, chopped
• 3/4 cup whipping cream
• 1 Tbsp powdered sugar
• 3 Oreos, finely crushed
• 1-2 Tbsp milk

Preparation

Step 1

For crust: Finely crush Oreos in a food processor. Add the melted butter and mix well. Press into the bottom of 12 paper lined muffin cups.

For filling: Beat cream cheese in a mixing bowl till smooth. Gradually beat in the sweetened condensed milk, then the egg and vanilla. Divide between the 12 crusts. Bake at 350° for 20-20 minutes or till puffed up and starting to crack. (They will sink as they cool.) Remove to cooling racks. Cool completely, then chill for at least 30 minutes.

For mousse: Melt chocolate in a glass bowl in the microwave at half power, stirring every 30 seconds. Set aside to cool slightly. In a glass mixing bowl, beat cream till soft peaks form. Quickly beat in the melted chocolate. Fold in the crushed Oreos. Add enough milk to make a spreadable mousse. Using a LARGE tip, pipe the mousse on top of the cheesecakes. (You need a large tip or the Oreos clog it up.) Garnish with additional Oreos if desired.
