Spark Notes: Marbled Oreo Cheesecake Bites


Every January ends up being a baking extravaganza for me as it’s my brother’s birthday and I would make unlimited baking goods for a month. Last year, it was brownies and the year before various cookies. This year, I’ve ventured out to make cheesecake bites. So how did this come about? Well, I was making marbled cheesecake for the New Year and ended up with a lot of leftover filling. As I was lazy to create another Oreo crust, what I ended up doing was finding my silicon cupcake molds and realizing that one cookie fit exactly at the bottom and I can just pour the filling into the molds and bake it. Was a surprise hit at the party and so I thought I’d share the recipe.

Ingredients:
1 packet Oreo Cookies
¼ cup hot water
½ cup sugar
2 packs (approx 8 oz each) Philadelphia Cream Cheese softened
½ cup plain yogurt
2 eggs
Hershey’s chocolate syrup

Method:
Heat oven to 325F
Beat hot water, cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with mixer until well blended. Add yogurt and mix well. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each until blended.
Remove ½ cup batter and stir in Hershey’s chocolate syrup.
Line cupcake molds with cookie and pour batter into mold. Drop small spoonfuls of chocolate batter on top and swirl gently with a toothpick.
Bake 25 minutes or until centre is almost set. Cool and refrigerate for 4 hours.

  1. Hi,
    Thanks for sharing the recipe. I intend to bake it, may I check what should I do with the 1/4 cup of hot water as it is not mentioned in the "method" but available in the ingredients list.

    cheers,
    Liliana
