Let’s Make It Together
- Line a muffin tin with 12 paper cupcake liners. This will hold our scrumptious cheesecake mixture perfectly.

- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until it’s smooth and creamy—a heavenly texture!
- Add the salt, vanilla, and Greek yogurt to the bowl. Continue beating until everything is well combined—the mixture will be beautifully creamy.
- Fold in the remaining 12 crushed Oreos until the flavors dance together, making sure the delicious cookie bits are evenly distributed.
- Gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip until everything is harmonious and combined. This adds a light, airy texture that we all love!
- Evenly scoop the cream cheese mixture into each cupcake liner and top with additional crushed Oreos if desired—a lovely touch for flavor and presentation.
- Place the filled muffin tin in the freezer for 3 hours. This will help our cheesecake bites hold their shape perfectly.
- When you’re ready to indulge, simply remove from the freezer, peel away the liners, and enjoy this delightful treat!
Fun Ways to Customize It
- Add a Fruit Twist: Swap out some of the crushed Oreos for fresh berries like strawberries or raspberries for a zesty and vibrant flavor.
- Peanut Butter Bliss: Mix in 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter to the cheesecake mixture for a rich, indulgent flavor that pairs beautifully with the chocolate.
- Minty Freshness: Add a few drops of peppermint extract to the mixture for a refreshing twist reminiscent of your favorite mint milkshake.
- Chocolate Drizzle: Once frozen, drizzle melted dark chocolate over the tops for an extra rich finish that will have everyone coming back for seconds!
