When I saw my good friend Rachel made this Oreo Mini Cheesecake few weeks ago, I told myself I definitely want to make this too. As I'm not a great fan of the taste of the condensed milk, I used whipping cream instead. The recipe is quite easy to follow and only takes about 20 minutes of baking time. The end result was perfect! The mini cheesecake was not too sweet to my liking and the cake texture was so light it just melted in my mouth. Definitely a keeper for sure!
Oreo Mini Cheesecake
- Ingredients: makes 12 (original recipe source from Wendy)
250g Cream cheese
150g Whipping cream
1 tsp Vanilla extract
2 Eggs (70g each), separated
a pinch of cream of tartar
60g Sugar
1 tube of Oreo (137g)

Method:
- Separate Oreos, leaving 12 pcs without cream intact and round. Put the rest of the biscuits together with the filling into a food processor and pulse in fine.
- Remember to preheat your oven (150C) and boil water after this.
- Line big muffin tin (100ml capacity each) with 12 paper cups. Place 1 heaped teaspoon of oreo crumbs onto paper cups and lightly press the crumbs to flatten with a mini roller pin. (see pictures)
- Cream cream cheese and 30g sugar on low speed until smooth, put in whipping cream, vanilla extract and egg yolks and continue to beat on low speed for another minute until well combined. Transfer cream mixtures to a large bowl and set aside.
- Whisk egg whites until frothy, add in cream of tartar continue to beat until soft peaks. Add in 30g sugar and beat till stiff (as long as egg whites don't fall when overturned, it will be fine, no need to be pointy stiff).
- Fold in egg whites to cream cheese mixtures with a rubber spatula.
- Spoon cream cheese mixtures into prepared paper cups. Top with an oreo biscuit.
- Bake for 20 minutes in a water bath.
- Leave to cool in oven, door ajar. Cool completely before chilling.
- Best chilled for 3 hours or more before serving.
kitchen note:
You'll find this cake very moist and damp after baked. You need to chill the cake first before consume.
You can replace 100g natural yogurt and 50g fresh milk to replace whipping cream to get a firmer cake.
Hope you have a wonderful week ahead!
this surely is yummy, Ann
ReplyDeletei'm drooling now :)

DeleteLooks gorgeous... would love to stop by ur place
ReplyDeleteAnn, I baked this before but instead of using condensed milk, I replaced by DLL, very delicious.
ReplyDeleteJess, ah... I remember you sent me the DLL and actually I've used it to spread it on bread but never add in my bakes. hehee...
DeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly looks good .... I also want to make this soon.
ReplyDeleteThe kids will really go gaga over this!
ReplyDelete这个迷你ｏｒｅｏ ｃｈｅｅｓｅ ｃａｋｅ真的好好吃～
ReplyDelete真的很好吃！你已经做了吗？
Deletehese cakes are very beautiful,they look yummy.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Have a try.
DeleteI bet anyone would love this! Especially my two kiddos. :)) will make this next week once I finished up my muffins. :))
ReplyDeleteBeeBee, Hope to try this soon. Quick and easy.
DeleteMy kids would love it, especially with that huge oreo on top. Yes, I also prefer cheese cake with whipping cream rather than condensed milk. I think condensed milk would be too sweet.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I even reduced the sugar as the Oreo cream is also quite sweet.
Deletei saw many bloggers making this oreo cheesecake, look at your beautiful cake, one day i must also try it out.
ReplyDeleteHope you try it soon. Very yummy!
DeleteCute little Oreo cheesecake.. .. Yes I have seen this popular cake around, I'm sure it taste wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThese mini cheesecake are a pure indulgence.
ReplyDeleteThese are the best looking Oreo cheesecakes I've seen so far ! ;D I love condensed milk but I haven't used it yet in making cheesecake .....
ReplyDeleteThanks Anne. If you've sweet tooth, I'm sure using condensed milk also very delicious.
Delete你终于都做啦～
ReplyDelete你也有做，是吗？
DeleteYummy! May I know how u water bath with paper cups.Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi, can you see I place the paper cup on a tart mould? You can also put the paper cup in the muffin tin of 12. Then after filling in the cream cheese mixture place the muffin tin on a pan and pour in hot water.
DeleteThe Oreo on top look like imprint of the cake.
ReplyDeleteFrom far at one glance look like some kind of creative mooncake.
(ya I am very imaginative)
hahaa...Angel. Very imaginative lol! I just saw you've added the home page. Good job!
DeleteThanks for ur reminder and tips.
DeleteWhat a yummy treat! I was wondering if the oreo still stays crispy after baking?
ReplyDeleteYes but only when the cake is still warm.
DeleteYour adaptation with whipping cream looks good too!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link :)
Thanks Wendy for sharing this yummy recipe :)
DeleteThese are the cutest little cheesecakes I have seen so far... Love them!!
ReplyDelete这真的很好吃，我家孩子都很喜欢，饼干和芝士都买好了就是没空再做给孩子吃。
ReplyDelete那还等什么？这个很快就搞定，赶快动手吧:)
DeleteHi Ann, I also made oreo cheesecake the other day for my son's birthday. But I did the non-bake version, which was quite nice too. Will try this baked version when I have time :D
ReplyDeleteYes I saw your cheesecake on FB. Looks very pretty!
DeleteThose look delicious. And great idea to get rid of the condensed milk. I'm not too fond of that either!
ReplyDeletethis is right and needful and very helpful. I really need to know this.I wish you post this type of things many many times. I have a dog food site all news about any dog food news about their likes, cost, activity are here. that link is http://www.petfood.com/
ReplyDeletemelt in your mouth cheesecake? wow, sounds really tempting! dont know why i got a very asian feel looking at this cheesecake,maybe it's that piece of oreo on top ..you know like those emperor's signature stamp? heehee..
ReplyDeletehahaa... Lena, that is a nice comment. I've should change the Oreo name to 'ONG'!
DeleteLovely little cute cheesecake !!! Thank you for sharing the recipe :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way do you know how to make Honeycomb Cake ??? I tried few recipes on the net but couldn't get the honeycomb effect :(
Cheers,
Wai Fan
Hi Wai Fan, Thank you for dropping by. I'd only made honeycomb cake once and that uses a lot of baking powder. Not sure I can get the comb effect now. Will try after the festival if I got the time.
Delete我也看中这个，只是一直还做不到，list太长了，呵呵!
ReplyDelete呵呵。。。我的list也是很长很长。。。
DeleteAnn, this is a very popular cheesecake among the blogger friends. I've seen many others made this b4, esp the girls from Penang! Very smart of wrapping the rolling pin with plastic paper. I've sent you 2 emails today, pls check & let me know whether is ok or not.
ReplyDeleteJessie，I also saw this popular cheesecake from them and it was very easy to make and yummy too.
DeleteWhat a wonderful creation. Oreo is one of my favorite cookies. These must be so yummy!
ReplyDelete哈哈.....你也做了这蛋糕，我的还在 waiting list 那痴痴等着。
ReplyDelete就是看到大家做的很美，才试试看。真的很好吃。你的几时要上贴？
Delete希望你能参加MOO抽奖活动，随便写几个字好了，记得写上email address :)
美！好吃～
ReplyDeleteHi. How do you do 'Bake for 20 minutes in a water bath'.
ReplyDeletePlace the muffin liners in the muffin pan of 12 then place the pan in a another shallow pan with water.
DeleteMmmmmm....I love individual cheesecakes...and these are so beautiful! Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lizzy!
DeleteOh you make me crave those right now before bed :)) they look incredible!!!! Great recipe and pictures as always!
ReplyDeletehahaa...Sandra, next time come during your breakfast time :D
DeleteI like the idea of these mini cheesecakes! They are perfect for tea! :)
ReplyDeleteHello! I've tried twice but these 2 attempts failed! =(
ReplyDeleteThey taste fine but the cake sinks down and looked really ugly.
I suddenly realized i did not have it baked in water bath. Could it be the case? Or is it because i've over-whisked the egg whites? Sigh...
(am quite bad at baking huh?)
Btw, can i use Full Cream milk instead of Whipping Cream?
Hi Ann Chen, Sorry to hear that :( I think probably is the egg whites mixing. You should not over mix the egg yolks and egg whites as the volume will deflates and will not rise well. Another reason might be the cake is still under baked.
DeleteI think full cream milk is heavier and not as thick as whipping cream. I personally prefer to use whipping in most of my cheesecakes as it tastes better tbut I don't mind to try it sometime.
Ann, whipping cream with cream cheese sound vv fattening! Do u think can replace with yoghurt?
ReplyDeleteFiona
Fiona, you can try using 100g yoghurt with 50g milk.
Delete我明天做！
ReplyDelete我明天做！
ReplyDelete希望能喜欢:)
DeleteHi Ann, finally finished a milestone of my work & quickly tried this yummy recipe last night.
ReplyDeleteBut i failed... :(((
I followed your recipe exactly except i used 1 block of Philadelphia cream cheese which is 225g instead of 250g.
After baking for 30 min, the inner part of the cake is still a little watery :((( Not sure what went wrong... Could you please advise? TQTQ
Hi Kah Chin, sorry to hear that. This cheese cake cannot eat immediately after baked because it is very moist and soft. It must be kept in the fridge before consuming. Some readers asked me whether they can change to milk if they don't us whipping cream but I don't think it is very suitable. So I suggested to them to use 100g natural yohurt and 50g milk or perhaps you can add extra one egg to it to get a firmer texture.
DeleteOIC... so that means mine could be actually ok?
DeleteJust because i haven't put in fridge...
But i thought it's not cooked and sadly sent to Mr. Bin :(((
I'll surely try again (must learn from Oggy ma ;)) but what would be the difference to use whipping cream vs to use yogurt+milk? Thank yooouuuuu!
我今天也做这个。不只是成功还是失败。
ReplyDelete可以到我的blogger看看吗？？
顺便也加一下我吧！！
谢谢~~
我怎样才能到你的blog？我按的时候是到了你的google+
Delete对不起，没有详细的说明。这蛋糕不能马上吃，一定要冷却了几个小时才好吃。
