Mini Oreo Nutella Cheesecakes

By

Oh I know! I love them because they are super easy to make, and take less time to make/ bake than a regular cheesecake. they have an Oreo crust with a Nutella filling and a dollop of hot fudge and Oreo crumbs on top. I feel that foil muffin cups work best for making cheesecakes over paper muffins cups. The foil cups are easier to remove after baking. Or just eat the cheesecakes out of the pan if you can’t wait!

  • Instructions

Preparation

Step 1

Oreo Crust
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
In a blender, blend the Oreos until you get Oreo dust.
Combine the Oreo dust with the melted butter in a small bowl.
Divide the crust mixture between 12 foil lined muffin cups (or wells in a mini cheesecake pan) and press the mixture down, I found that a 1/3 measuring cup works well to press the mixture.
Bake for 5 minutes, then remove from the oven to cool.

Nutella Filling
In a medium bowl mix the sugar, flour, and cream cheese until smooth.
Beat in the eggs, then add the milk, and vanilla, mix until smooth.
Fold in the Nutella until just combined.
Divide the filling evenly between the muffin cups, filling nearly to the top. Tap lightly on the counter to release any trapped air.
Bake for 20-24 minutes, or until just slightly jiggly in the center. Remove and chill in the fridge for several hours.

Add a dollop of heated hot fudge and Oreo crumbs on top before serving.
