Ingredients
Scale
1 cup Oreo Crumbs
2 1/2 tbsp Butter, Melted
2 (8 oz) Cream Cheese, Softened
1/2 cup Sugar
2 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
Neon Green Food Coloring
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cupcake pan with liners.
Pulse about 10-11 Oreos in a food processor to make crumbs. Then pulse in melted butter until well combined.
Divide crumbs evenly between each liner and press down firmly.
In a medium size bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
Mix in neon green food coloring until desired Grinchy color is reached.
Spoon about 1/4 cup mixture into each cup, filling them evenly.
Bake for 15-17 minutes. The centers of the cheesecakes should be slightly jiggly. Remove from oven and let completely cool in the pan. Then refrigerate until firm.
Top with whipped cream and sprinkles if desired.
Notes
Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
Adjust the amount of food coloring based on how vibrant you want the cheesecakes to be.
