Crush the Oreos

Place the Oreos in a plastic bag and seal. Using a rolling pin or a sturdy wooden spoon, crush the Oreos into fine crumbs. Spoon 1 1/2 – 2 tablespoons of the crushed Oreos to the bottom of 6 small dessert dishes (make sure dishes are at least 3/4 cup-1 cup size). Set aside.

Mix the Filling

Using a hand or standing mixer, whip cream cheese and powdered sugar until creamy and smooth. Add the vanilla and beat to mix in. Gently fold in the Cool Whip to incorporate. Fold in the remaining crushed Oreos.

Assemble the Cups

Divide the cheesecake filling evenly across the dishes and gently press it onto the crushed Oreos. Chill for about 1 hour or until you’re ready to serve.

Serve with Toppings

Top with whipped cream and more crushed Oreos before serving. Enjoy!
