Ingredients

  • 2 cups crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (for filling)
  • 28 mini chocolate sandwich cookies (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix crushed cookies and melted butter until the texture resembles wet sand.
  2. Spoon the mixture evenly into 28 small 2-ounce cups, pressing down firmly to form the crust.
  3. In another bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add vanilla extract and heavy cream. Beat on medium-high until thick and fluffy.
  5. Gently fold in 1/2 cup crushed cookies.
  6. Transfer the filling to a piping bag or zip-top bag with the corner snipped. Pipe into each cup over the crust, filling about 3/4 full.
  7. Top each cup with a mini cookie or additional crumbs if desired.
  8. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Add a drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce between crust and filling for extra flavor.
  • White chocolate chips or chocolate shavings can be folded into the filling for added texture.
  • Reduce sugar slightly for a less sweet version.
  • Use cupcake liners, mini jars, or a small baking dish if individual cups aren’t available.
