Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F and line a 12 cup muffin tin with cupcake liners. Place 1 whole Oreo cookie at the bottom of each liner as the crust.
In a large bowl beat 16 oz softened cream cheese with a hand mixer on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes until completely smooth and lump free.
Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar and mix for 1 minute until creamy and well incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Add 2 large eggs one at a time mixing on low speed just until combined after each addition to avoid overmixing.
Mix in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/4 cup sour cream until smooth and silky.
Gently fold in 6 crushed Oreo cookies using a spatula to evenly distribute the cookie pieces without deflating the batter.
Divide the batter evenly over the Oreo bases filling each liner almost to the top. Sprinkle extra crushed cookies on top if desired.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the centers are set but slightly soft. Do not overbake to prevent cracks.
Cool in the pan at room temperature for 30 minutes then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving for best texture.

Notes

Use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth batter.
Do not overmix after adding eggs to prevent cracks.
Chill completely before serving for clean edges.
Freeze for up to 2 months in an airtight container.
