Week 7: Oreo Overload – Cheesecake bites!
This week I used YouTube for my learning project. I decided to make mini Oreo cheesecake bites, I’ve never made cheesecake before and it seemed fairly simple to put together. I ended up making wayyy more cheesecake mixture than the crumbs at the bottom so I had to spend more time crushing and chopping more Oreos for the bottom. I ended up using a lot more Oreos than the video I followed did because I just figured they would be better with more. After I got them all made I cooked them in the oven for a bit and then once they were done I chilled them in the fridge for about an hour. For the first time at attempting cheesecake I think I did a pretty good job, I found that the centres after they cooled had caved in a bit and found out that it’s because I overmixed the mixture which I will know for next time I also would maybe cook them slightly longer. The video I used was really easy to follow which is linked below!
Since I ended up making so many I ended up taking most of them home to my family so my mom could freeze them for Christmas time! My sisters loved them so I will definitely be making these again! Cheesecake is definitely a pretty simple dessert to make to share with others and I would like to continue to make all sorts of different kinds because who doesn’t love cheesecake!
OMG!! Those look absolutely delicious! Oreo is a really versatile flavour and often makes the best desserts!! I’m sure these will be popular and you will be able to point people in the right direction on how to make them!!
WOW! Olivia, these look amazing! Having leftovers frozen and saved for christmas will be so rewarding, maybe even sneak one or two during the chaos of the end of semester projects/exams (because you earned it!) I am happy to hear these were relatively easy, I might try and give them a go over the break!
I am a chronic over-mixer when it comes to things like these! It’s good that they still taste great, and that your family enjoyed them. I’m sure that they will be a hit at Christmas!
Hi Olivia, Oreo cheesecake bites sound AMAZING! Oreo is my favourite flavour for everything. It’s awesome that your family loved them, and freezing them for Christmas is such a great idea.
