These festive Peppermint Cheesecakes are no-bake mini desserts with a crunchy Oreo crust, creamy peppermint white chocolate filling, and a fluffy whipped cream topping. Perfect for the holidays, they’re easy to prepare and bursting with cool minty flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Crust:
  • 20 Oreo cookies
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • For the Filling:
  • 1 cup cold heavy whipping cream
  • 2 packages cream cheese, softened (8 oz each)
  • 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips
  • ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
  • ½ cup chopped Andes Peppermint Crunch (plus extra for topping)
  • Whipped cream (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with cupcake liners.
  2. Pulse Oreos in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Stir in melted butter until combined.
  3. Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of Oreo mixture into each cupcake liner and press firmly with the back of a spoon.
  4. In a clean, cold mixing bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks. Set aside.
  5. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  6. Melt the white chocolate chips in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  7. Immediately mix the melted white chocolate into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  8. Gently fold in peppermint extract, chopped Andes Peppermint Crunch, and the whipped cream until mixture is smooth and fluffy.
  9. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the cheesecake filling into each prepared cupcake liner, smoothing the tops.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until fully set.
  11. Before serving, top with whipped cream and additional chopped Andes Peppermint Crunch.

Notes

  • Chill your mixing bowl before whipping cream to help form stiff peaks.
  • Make these ahead and store in the fridge (up to 5 days) or freeze for up to 3 months (without toppings).
  • Substitute Oreos with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or golden Oreos if desired.
  • Thaw frozen cheesecakes overnight in the fridge before serving.
