A scrumptious oreo crust bottom with creamy cheesecake and a dollop of blueberry pie filling. I’m a cheesecake lover, so when I stumbled across these mini blueberry cheesecakes, I had to share. Even though summer is more than a few months away, these mini dessert bites are great anytime of the year.

Ingredients
Cheesecake Crust
- 2 cups graham crackers or Oreos (, crushed)
- 1 stick butter (, melted)
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
Cheesecake
- 2 8 ounce packages cream cheese (, room temperature)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1 21 ounce can of blueberry pie filling
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice - optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line mini muffin tins with paper cups.
- In a medium bowl, crush oreos or graham crackers into crumbs. Measure 2 cups and combine with melted butter and sugar. Mix until combined well.
- Press 1/2 tablespoons cracker crumbs into the bottom of each cupcake liner and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese on lowest setting until smooth and fluffy.

Scoop cheesecake batter into prepared crusts and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until firm but the centers of the cheesecakes still a bit jiggly.
