Mini Oreo Cheesecake

My "mini" oreo cheesecake came after a day of experimenting with cream cheese, cookies, and oreos.  This is really simple, because I made it up (of course). It was pretty good, but maybe too many oreos.  I'd make it again!

Oreo Cheesecake
Crust
Oreos
Butter

Crumble enough oreos to make a crust for whatever you bake the cheesecake in.  I used a baking dish that's probably 10x2 (maybe smaller).  Melt enough butter and pour to the crumbled oreos so that it comes together.  Dump that mixture into your greased dish and make sure the entire bottom is covered. Crust is done.

Cheesecake
1/2 brick softened cream cheese
1 egg
3 tbsp cornstarch
1/4 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350F

Mix everything together in a bowl until combined.  Pour the mixture over the oreo crust.  Next stick whole oreos into the cream cheese mixture.  Place the cheesecake into the oven and bake until the cheesecake no longer jiggles. For my small cake this was about 40 minutes.  The top will get a little brown, but you want it to be cooked, so make sure it doesn't jiggle.  To make a bigger cheesecake, just increase the ingredients! Couldn't be easier.
