Mini Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecakes – individually sized peanut butter cheesecakes with a Peanut Butter creme Oreo for the crust, surprise mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup in the middle and drizzled with chocolate. Your chocolate and peanut butter lovers are going to go nuts for this dessert!
Here it is, the first of a few Oreo recipes.
Yes, we still have different flavored Oreos left over from when my daughter and I did our Oreo taste testing last week. It all started when my daughter, Emma who lives on the east coast posted on my wall that Oreo now had a Swedish Fish Oreo.

SAY WHA????
I wanted to believe it, but at the same time, really didn’t because I just couldn’t imagine the two being combined. To be honest, I’m actually starting to pucker and salivate just thinking about them again now.
Take a look at these mini cheesecakes from my blogger friends…
1. Mini Turtle Cheesecakes from Handle the Heat
2. Lime Mini Cheesecakes with a Chocolate Crust from Baking a Moment
3. Mini New York Cheesecake Recipe from Add a Pinch
4. Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cheesecakes from Sally’s Baking Addiction
5. Mini Nutella Cheesecakes from The Cookie Rookie
Altogether, we taste tested about 15 different Oreo flavors. It was sugar overload and we only took a bite or more of each cookie, some two or more, but I don’t think we ever ate a whole one.
Here’s the video we did.
At the end of September, Emma comes to visit us for a few days so I’ll be doing a LIVE video again with both of my daughters where we do the BeanBoozled Game and taste test different flavors of jelly beans. That is, if I can talk Miss Emma into it. She seems a wee bit skeptical that she should participate. haha, Can’t imagine why since there are dirt, vomit, soap and the list goes on.
