  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chopped Andes mints (about 20 mints)

For Garnish:

  • Additional chopped Andes mints

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a standard muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Prepare the Crust:

    • In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until well mixed.
    • Press about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each muffin liner to form the crust.
  3. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:

    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
    • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
    • Mix in the vanilla extract, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth.
    • Fold in the chopped Andes mints until evenly distributed.
  4. Fill the Muffin Liners:

    • Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling into each muffin liner, filling almost to the top.
  5. Bake:

    • Bake the mini cheesecakes in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are slightly jiggly.
    • Remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. Chill:

    • Once cooled, refrigerate the mini cheesecakes for at least 2 hours, or until fully chilled and set.

    • Before serving, garnish each mini cheesecake with additional chopped Andes mints.
