Ingredients

For the Crust:

• 12 Oreo cookies (or chocolate sandwich cookies)
• 2 tbsp melted butter

For the Cheesecake Filling:

• 8 oz light cream cheese, softened
• ½ cup pumpkin purée (not pumpkin pie mix)
• ¼ cup granulated sugar
• ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
• ½ tsp cinnamon

Optional Garnish:

• Light whipped cream
• Crushed Oreo crumbs
• A sprinkle of cinnamon

Instructions

1. Prepare the Oven & Pan
Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

2. Make the Crust
Crush Oreos into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter. Divide mixture evenly among muffin cups and press down firmly to form the crust.

3. Make the Filling
In a bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add pumpkin purée, sugars, egg, vanilla, and spices. Mix until creamy and well combined.

4. Assemble & Bake
Spoon the filling over each crust, filling cups almost to the top. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until centers are just set.

5. Chill
Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

6. Garnish & Serve
Top with whipped cream, Oreo crumbs, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for a festive finish.

Tips for Success

• Use Room Temperature Cream Cheese: Ensures smooth filling without lumps.
• Don’t Overbake: The centers should still have a slight jiggle when removed from the oven.
• Chill Completely: This helps the cheesecakes set and enhances flavor.
• Get Creative: Try flavored Oreos (like pumpkin spice or golden) for a fun twist.
