How to make Orange Cheesecake Mini Cheesecakes?

• Place 12 cupcake liners in a muffin tin, add one Oreo to the bottom of each cupcake liner, and set aside
• To make orange creamsicle filling:
• In a medium bowl, mix cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy
• In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form, add orange extract and mix until stiff peaks form
• Add cream cheese mixture into beaten heavy cream mix on low speed just to combine
• Divide mixture into 2 equal portions in separate bowls
• Spread the first half of the cheesecake mixture over the Oreo bottom
• To the remaining half of the mixture add orange zest and 2-3 drops of orange gel food coloring and mix on low speed to combine then gently spread the orange mixture over the cream cheese layer and use a toothpick to swirl the mixture
• Set in the fridge to firm
• Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours or overnight
• When the mini cheesecake is completely set garnish with whipped cream on top, an orange slice if desired

Servings Suggestions:

These are great grab-and-go shareable snacks. Since they are individually portioned, they are great for groups or to keep a few in your freezer for yourself, whenever the craving strikes. You can serve them in the cupcake wrappers or remove them and place them on a serving tray.

How to Store?

Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. If you want to freeze it, once it is set, you can wrap it up in a plastic wrap and then with foil. Place in an airtight freezer-safe container or bag and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight when ready to eat.
