Cheesecake Oreo Cups (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Chocolate Cookie Cups

01 - 2 cups plain flour
02 - 1/4 cup sifted Dutch cocoa
03 - 1/4 cup sifted black cocoa
04 - 1 tsp baking soda
05 - 1/2 tsp salt
06 - 1 cup soft unsalted butter
07 - 1/2 cup sugar
08 - 1 cup packed light brown sugar
09 - 2 room-temperature large eggs
10 - 1 tsp vanilla

→ Oreo Cheesecake Filling

11 - 1 cup cold heavy cream
12 - 8 ounces softened full-fat cream cheese
13 - 1/2 cup sugar
14 - 3/4 cup crushed Oreo cookies

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Coat two muffin pans with nonstick spray.
02 - In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, both types of cocoa, salt, and baking soda. Put this aside.
03 - Using a mixer on medium-high, cream the butter with both sugars for 2-3 minutes until fluffy. Lower the speed, add one egg at a time, then mix in the vanilla until smooth.
04 - Slowly add the flour mixture into the wet ingredients. Stir gently just until they're mixed together.
05 - Scoop out dough using a 3-tbsp scoop. Fill the muffin tins and gently press each one down a little.
06 - Bake for about 10-13 minutes, until mostly done but still soft in the centers. Take them out and right away use a small jar to indent the middle of each cookie. Let them cool in the pan for 10 minutes, twist to release, and cool completely on a wire rack.
07 - Whip the chilled heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks. Use a cold bowl and whisk for best results.
08 - In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until it's creamy. Add the Oreo crumbs and mix until fully blended.
09 - Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Pipe or scoop the filling into the cookie cups once cooled.
10 - Let the filled cups chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours to firm up. Top with more Oreo crumbs if you like. Eat chilled within 2-3 days, or freeze for up to a month.

# Notes:

01 - If black cocoa isn't available, you can use all Dutch cocoa, though it will change the flavor and look.
02 - Don’t have crumbs? Crush the cookie part of real Oreos as a substitute.
