Ingredients

Scale

For the Oreo Crust Layer:

20 Oreo cookies (crushed)
4 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)

For the Cheesecake Filling:

8 oz (1 block) cream cheese (softened)
½ cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream (cold)

For the Strawberry Layer:

1 ½ cups fresh strawberries (diced)
1 tbsp granulated sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)

Instructions

Make the Oreo Crust:
- In a food processor or a plastic bag, crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs.
- In a small bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with melted butter. Stir until well combined.
- Spoon the mixture into the bottom of individual serving cups (about 6-8 cups depending on size) and press down firmly to form an even crust layer. Set aside.
Make the Cheesecake Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream too much.
Assemble the Cheesecake Cups:
- Spoon the cheesecake filling over the Oreo crust layer in each cup, filling them almost to the top. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
- Chill the cups in the fridge for at least 2 hours or until the cheesecake layer is set.
Prepare the Strawberry Layer:
- In a small bowl, combine the diced strawberries with granulated sugar (if desired) and let them sit for 10-15 minutes to release their juices and become slightly syrupy.
Top and Serve:
- Once the cheesecake cups are chilled, top each cup with the macerated strawberries.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

You can substitute the strawberries with other fruits like raspberries, blueberries, or even a mix of berries.
For a more decadent touch, you can drizzle some chocolate sauce or melted Nutella on top before serving.
These cups can be made a day ahead, and they store well in the fridge for up to 2 days.
