Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175C/160C Fan) and line a 12-cup muffin tray with cupcake cases.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the crushed Oreos and melted butter. Spoon this out evenly into the prepared cases and press down with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
- In a medium bowl, add your cream cheese, sugar, egg yolk and vanilla, whisking together until smooth. Spoon this into a layer over the prepared Oreo bases and place in the centre of the pre-heated oven. Bake for about 15 minutes until set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool while you prepare the ganache.
- Add your chopped chocolate to a medium, heat proof bowl. In a saucepan, heat the cream to a simmer. Allow to simmer for about 2 minutes, but avoid bringing to a boil. Then pour this over your chopped chocolate and let sit for another 2 minutes before stirring. Stir until smooth and then spoon equally over your cupcakes. Let set for a few minutes to begin setting.
- Top each with a mini egg and chill until ready to serve.
