# Ingredient List:
→ Crust
01 - 1 cup Oreo cookie crumbs (approximately 10-11 cookies)
02 - 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
→ Cheesecake Filling
03 - 16 ounces (2 packages) cream cheese, softened
04 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar
05 - 2 large eggs
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
07 - Neon green gel food coloring, quantity as needed
→ Optional Toppings
08 - Whipped cream
09 - Festive sprinkles or red heart sprinkles
# Step-by-Step Instructions:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup standard muffin pan with paper liners.
02 - Pulse Oreo cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Add melted butter and pulse briefly until mixture resembles wet sand.
03 - Distribute crust mixture evenly into liners, about 1 tablespoon each. Press firmly with the back of a spoon or small glass.
04 - Beat softened cream cheese and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
05 - Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
06 - Blend in neon green gel food coloring incrementally until desired shade is achieved.
07 - Spoon approximately 1/4 cup cheesecake batter into each liner, filling nearly to the top. Bake 15 to 17 minutes until centers are mostly set but still slightly jiggly.
08 - Remove pan from oven and allow cheesecakes to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to firm.
09 - Top with whipped cream and festive or red heart sprinkles as desired just prior to serving.
