Base
- 1 1/2 packets (250g) Oreos
- ~1/4 cup (100g) Butter
Filling
- ~2 cups (450g) cream cheese
- ~7 fl oz (200ml) double cream, whipped
- ~1/3 cup (50g) grated chocolate (plus extra for topping)
- ~1 cup (100g) powdered sugar (icing sugar)
- ~2.7 fl oz (80ml) Irish cream liqueur
- Prepare the Oreo Base: Roughly break the Oreo biscuits into a food processor and blitz at high speed until they resemble fine breadcrumbs. Melt the butter in a saucepan and mix it thoroughly with the biscuit crumbs to combine well.
- Form the Base: Divide the biscuit mixture evenly between 9 muffin cases. Use the back of a teaspoon to press the mixture down firmly to create a compact base. Place in the refrigerator and chill for 1 hour to set.
- Make the Filling: In a large bowl, lightly whip together the cream cheese, Irish cream liqueur, icing sugar, and grated chocolate until smooth and well combined. Gently fold in the whipped double cream until the mixture is uniform and fluffy.
- Fill the Cheesecakes: Spoon the creamy filling evenly into each chilled biscuit base in the muffin cases. Refrigerate the assembled cheesecakes for at least 2 to 3 hours to allow them to set properly.
- Serve: Once set, carefully remove the mini cheesecakes from the muffin cases. Sprinkle extra grated chocolate on top for garnish and serve chilled for a boozy, indulgent treat.
Notes
- Ensure the double cream is whipped to soft peaks before folding it into the cream cheese mixture to get a light and airy filling.
- Press the biscuit base firmly to ensure it holds together well when serving.
- Refrigeration time is important for the cheesecakes to set properly—do not skip this step.
- Use good quality Irish cream liqueur for the best flavor.
- These cheesecakes are best served chilled and consumed within 2 days for optimal freshness.
