Mini Pumpkin Oreo Cheesecakes

A creamy, decadent delicious pumpkin cheesecake with an Oreo for the crust. These Mini Pumpkin Oreo  Cheesecakes are a cinch to make and are completely fabulous!

Cheesecake ranks at the top of my favorite desserts list. I L.O.V.E. it and every time I make any kind of cheesecake, I’m reminded again how much I love it and wonder why I don’t

make it more often. . .probably because I’d become the Goodyear Blimp if I did. Thankfully the day I made these Mini Pumpkin Oreo Cheesecakes, Braydon has some friends over doing a project for their Spanish class so I pawned a few of these off to his friends so I didn’t eat them all.

Now we all know what a sucker I am for anything pumpkin, so combining pumpkin and cheesecake together is utter perfection if you ask me. The fact that these  pumpkin cheesecakes have an Oreo as the crust just makes them even more delicious.These cheesecakes are so, so good and incredibly easy to make. The best part is there is no crushing involved to make the crust. You just plop a whole Oreo into the bottom of a lined muffin tin and voila, you have your crust.  Just look at that! Isn’t that just a sight for sore eyes? You should really consider adding these to your must-make-for-Thanksgiving dessert list.
