Total Time: 30 Minutes, Servings: 12 Servings

Ingredients :

• 20 Oreo cookies
• 1/4 cup butter, melted
• 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate (I like Baker's chocolate bars)
• 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 2/3 cup sour cream
• 1 Tablespoon vanilla
• 2 eggs, room temperature
• Chocolate Ganache:
• 2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate (like Baker's chocolate bars)
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• (optional) halved strawberries

Instructions :

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees and line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners.
• In a food processor, pulse the Oreos into fine crumbs and mix together crumbs and melted butter. Press a heaping tablespoon of crumbs into the bottom of each muffin tin. You can easily do this with the bottom of the tablespoon or measuring cup.
• Break 6 ounces of the chocolate into pieces and place in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second intervals until melted.
• In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, melted chocolate, and sugar until fluffy. Mix in the sour cream and vanilla. Mix in the eggs one at a time at a low speed until combined. Do not overmix.
• Using a cupcake scoop (or spoon), scoop into all the paper lined cupcake tins.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes or until tops are not glossy. Cool completely and chill in the fridge.
• For the ganache, melt the 2 ounces of chocolate and cream in a microwave safe bowl stirring together until smooth. Place a dollop on top of each cheesecake. Top with half a strawberry if desired or other topping. Chill until ganache is firm and keep cheesecakes chilled until serving.
