Ingredients

Crust

• 1 1/4 Cups Oreo Cookie Crumbs
• 6 Tbsp Cup Melted Unsalted Butter
• 1 Tbsp Sugar

Cheesecake Mousse

• 6oz Room Temp Cream Cheese
• 1 1/4 Cups Heavy Whipping Cream
• 1/3 Cup + 1 Tbsp Sugar
• 1 Tsp Vanilla
• 1/2 Cup Oreo Cookie Crumbs

Chocolate Ganache

1/2 Cup Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips

1/4 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream

Dulce de Leche

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place cupcake papers in a cupcake tin.
2. In a bowl combine the Oreo cookie crumbs and sugar. Give it a good mix. Add melted butter and combine. The mixture will be a little wet and crumbly. Divide the wet crumbs evenly onto the cupcake tin. Press it down and to the sides until its firm and smooth.
3. Bake the crumbs for 5 mins. Take out of the oven and allow to cool completely.
In a stand mixer with a whisk attachment place the cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, sugar and vanilla and beat on low speed until it starts to mix. When mixture is pretty combined bump the speed up to High and it only takes a couple of minutes and the mixture will be fluffy and creamy. Add oreo crumbs to the mousse. Mix until comnbined but do not over mix.
4. Pipe chocolate ganache or spoon it into the center of the mousse cups. About 1 Tbsp way do not over fill so you have space to pipe your mousse.
5. Next, I used a 1M Wilton tip. Pipe the cheesecake mousse and allow to set or 1-2 hours if traveling with the dessert set for 3-4 hrs.

TIPS

1. The cream cheese should only be allowed to room temp for about 30-45 mins depending on the temp of your home. It should be soft but still have a cool temperature. It is important to allow to soften if not it will not mix well and you will have an unpleasant lumpy mixture.
2. If you have extra batter you can save it and use it as a dip or enjoy on pancakes!.
3. It takes about 1-2 minutes for the mixture to get to its desired consistency. If you over beat it can get a buttery like texture. It needs to be smooth and have medium peaks where its fluffy but you’re able to pipe with the mixture.
e able to pipe them it can cause a clog in the bag.
