Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started on these delightful cheesecakes! First, preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners, and in a bowl, combine the crushed Oreo cookies and a tablespoon of melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of each liner to create a crust. Once you’ve achieved a nice even layer, set the tin aside and start working on the cheesecake filling.
