Oreo Cheesecakes
vegetariandessertSpray SurfaceKid-FriendlyMeal-Prep
For a kid-friendly twist, this recipe uses Oreo cookies as the crust. The whole Oreo softens under the cheesecake for a fudgy, cookie-like base. You'll find the full recipe and air frying instructions below.
Ingredients
For the crust:
- 6 Oreo cookies (one whole cookie per cup, cream and all)
For the filling:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sour cream
- 3 additional Oreos, roughly crushed into chunks
Steps
- 01Place one whole Oreo at the bottom of each silicone muffin cup. Don't crush it. The whole cookie IS the crust.
- 02Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
- 03Add egg, vanilla, and sour cream. Mix until smooth.
- 04Fold in the crushed Oreo chunks.
- 05Pour into cups, filling 3/4 full.
- 06Ready for the air fryer.
Using a whole Oreo as the base instead of crushing cookies and mixing with butter is faster and honestly works better in the air fryer. It softens under the cheesecake and becomes a fudgy, cookie-like crust. The chunks folded into the filling give you cookies-and-cream texture in every bite.

How to Air Fry It

- 02Place the prepared ramekins into the air fryer basket.
- 03Cook for 15 minutes at 300°F.
