Simple Mini Oreo Cheesecake Dessert

Today I’m sharing a simple dessert that looks and tastes pretty fantastic. These Mini Oreo Cheesecake are amazing served in an elegant glass at a dinner party. Happily, they’re just as at home in these plastic wine tasting glasses.

Given the weather is warming up, I feel we may be at the beginning of barbecue season. I love socialising! It’s such fun to get together with friends, have a glass of wine and enjoy a catch up. The traditional Australian “bring a plate” routine makes things easier on the hostess and gives guests a chance to make something a little special.

In the past I have made so many different flavoured desserts in these handy single serve cups. Take a look at some of these yummy options;

Being an individual serve dessert makes things nice and easy. The Mini Oreo Cheesecake dessert tray is simply placed at the end of the table and guests can serve themselves when they’re ready. There isn’t a pie that needs cutting and you don’t need to worry about a dish that doesn’t return home, everything is disposable.

Recently I made 80 mini Oreo cheesecakes to serve at my father’s 70th birthday. Thankfully they were really quick to make.  I set up a mini production line in my kitchen and before I knew it, I had the cheesecakes finished and in the fridge. It was an awesome night!

Plus, at dessert time I didn’t need to lift a finger!
