Introduction

The crust of these little treats is actually a whole Oreo, not crumbs. Leaving the cookie intact makes for a thick crust that gets nice and soft after they’ve baked and chilled. Topping off those Oreos is one of my favorite things – cheesecake. Of course, it wouldn’t meet the legal definition of a cookies and cream cheesecake without even more Oreos mixed into the cheesecake. I especially like the addition of sour cream to the cheesecake filling. It offsets all that sweet with just a little bit of tartness. These cheesecakes are great for a crowd. I like to make individual treats for larger groups because they are so much easier to transport and serve. I made them for a baby shower and can imagine they’d be great for all of your backyard gatherings this summer.
