OREO CHEESECAKE BITES RECIPE

The thing that I love about this recipe is that it can be cut into little tiny bite-size pieces. For some reason I don’t feel as guilty when I pop about 10 of these little bites into mouth as compared to sitting down and devouring a huge piece of cheesecake (even though I have a feeling they equal out to be about the same amount).

OREO CHEESECAKE BITES RECIPE:

INGREDIENTS

• 36 OREO Cookies, divided
• 1/4 cup butter or margarine, divided
• 4 pkg. (8 oz. each) cream cheese, softened (I used Neufchatel cheese)
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup sour cream (I used light)
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 4 eggs
• 1/2 pound (8 oz) chocolate candy coating (or chocolate chips)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
2. Line a 13x9" baking pan with foil, with ends extending over sides. Finely crush 24 cookies (I placed them in a Ziploc bag and crushed them with my rolling pin). Melt 1/4 cup butter; mix with crumbs. Press onto bottom of prepared pan.
3. Beat softened cream cheese and sugar with mixer until blended. Add sour cream and vanilla; mix well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each just until blended. Chop remaining 12 Oreo cookies. Gently stir into batter; pour over crust.
4. Bake for about 45 minutes or until center is almost set. Let cool (I stuck mine into the fridge for about 2 hours). After the cheesecake has cooled down, microwave chocolate in a microwaveable bowl until melted (follow directions on packaging); stir until smooth. Use foil handles to lift cheesecake from pan and cut into bite-size pieces. Place on baking sheet covered in wax paper. Drizzle melted chocolate over each piece of cheesecake using a spoon. Stick in the fridge until chocolate has hardened.
