How to Make Mini Twix Cheesecakes

In my humble opinion desserts and candy belong together. So to me, this recipe is absolutely PERFECT!

Step 1 of 12

First make the crust for the mini cheesecakes. In a food processor, grind up 1/2 package of Oreos. (about 20 Oreos) I love Oreos just in case it wasn’t completely obvious.

Step 2 of 12

Pour in 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter and stir to coat all of the cookie crumbs with butter. Butter makes everything better.

Step 3 of 12

Scoop 1 Tablespoon of cookie crumbs into each cupcake liner.

Step 4 of 12

Press the crumbs down firmly with your hands. Set the cupcake pan aside while you make the cheesecake batter.

Step 5 of 12

In a bowl mix 1 pound of softened cream cheese until smooth. Then pour in 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 tsp of vanilla. Mix on medium low speed.

Step 6 of 12

Whisk 2 eggs and slowly pour them in while you mix the batter.

Step 7 of 12

add in 1/2 cup sour cream and mix. :)

Step 8 of 12

Take 12 mini Twix bars and chop each one up into small pieces like so.

Step 9 of 12

Carefully fold them in. I could just bathe in that cheesecake batter. Actually I could bathe in all cheesecake batter.

Step 10 of 12

Take an ice cream scooper and scoop the cheesecake batter into each cupcake liner.

Step 11 of 12

Bake the cheesecakes at 275 degrees for 30 minutes. Now here comes the hard part, chill the cheesecakes in the refrigerator overnight. Yes we must wait overnight. A shame isn’t it? But oh so worth it.

Step 12 of 12

say hello to your dieting demise :) and enjoy.

@Ryan mine came out pretty cleanly but if yours won't just slide a butter knife around the edges and they should pop out pretty easy. If they

Decorate them up also...pipe out some hearts, initials, anything really, with melted chocolate in a ziplock with the tip cut off, pipe it on some wax paper. Let it dry really good and CAREFULLY remove from wax paper and place them standing up on the cake.

Kellie Forbes 7 months ago

OMG!! Looks soooo GOOD! The possibilities are endless as to what you could sub the twix for...Heath Bars, cookie dough bites...for Halloween, you can even do candy corn...Valentines day, Red Hots...Oh my...I could go on & on! LOL!

So cool how can I save this !

Hovik Bayburtski 8 months ago

@stephanie you could always look up recipes for full size cheesecake and then add the Twix in but you can't use the same measurements or time or heat. As for the chocolate bars the sky is pretty much the limit. I just really like Twix :)

Taylor Roellig (author) 8 months ago

Could you make a full size cheesecake rather than individuals ? If so would everything be the same ? Ie cooking time and heat ? Ingredients ? Oh and btw my mouth was watering while i was reading this .. What other chocolate bars could u use .. ?? Steph x

@itgoesomandomanom (nice name btw) its normal sized Oreos and its actually preferable that you do paper cupcake liners so that you can take them out easier. I just didn't have any at the time. :)

Taylor Roellig (author) 9 months ago

Are the normal or small oreos, and can you make them in paper cases? Thanks and awesome recipe! xoxo :D
