Well! Again it has been longer than I anticipated being able to write. For the last week I have been looking for a new refrigerator, finding a new table for my "dining area" (which shares a spot with the weight bench, why? because we have too many people in this house and not enough room *end rant*) and doing homework. Like on. Overload. Yes, overload! I was literally so busy yesterday that I didn't even eat until after midnight last night. It was purely ridiculous.Anywhoo.

I made OREO Cheesecake Cupcakes!!! Goodness they are so delicious! As always here is the wonderful recipe that I found on pinterest via Grace's Sweet Life:

Oreo Cookies and Cream Cheesecakes

(from Martha Stewart’s Cupcakes)
Makes 30
  • 42 Oreo, cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies, 30 left whole and 12 coarsely chopped
  • 908 grams (2 pounds or about 3 2/3 packages) cream cheese, room temperature
  • 225 grams (1 cup) sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten
  • 230 g (1 cup or 8 ounces) sour cream
  • Pinch of salt
  1. Preheat oven to 275° F.  Line standard muffin tins with paper liners.  Place 1 whole Oreo cookie in the bottom of each lined muffin cup.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese on medium-high speed until smooth, scraping down sides of the bowl as needed.  Gradually add the sugar, and beat until combined.  Beat in the vanilla.
  3. Drizzle in eggs, a little at a time, beating to combine and scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Add in sour cream and salt, beat to combine.  Using a large spatula, fold in the chopped Oreo cookies.
  4. Divide batter evenly among the cookie-filled muffin cups, fill each cup almost to the top.  Bake, rotating muffin tins halfway through, until the filling is set, about 22 to 28 minutes.  Transfer the muffins tins to a wire rack to cool completely. Refrigerate (in the muffin tins) at least 4 hours (or overnight). Remove from tins just before serving.
