Ingredients
Whipped Cream Mixture:
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream
- 2-3 tablespoons powdered sugar
Crust:
- 16 Thin Mint cookies (1 sleeve) crushed
- 2 tablespoons salted butter melted
Cheesecake Mixture:
- 8 ounces cream cheese light or regular, softened
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- ½ cup semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Garnish:
- 6 Thin Mint Cookies optional
Instructions
- In a large bowl (or a blender, I always use my Blendtec for whipping cream), whip the cream and 2-3 tablespoons powdered sugar, depending on how sweet you want it, with an electric mixer to stiff peaks. Set aside or refrigerate.
- For the crust, toss the crushed cookies and butter together. The mixture will be crumbly. Sprinkle a tablespoon or so of the crust mixture on the bottom of six small 4- to 6-ounce dessert glasses, bowls, or ramekins. Press lightly. Reserve leftover crust crumbles for later.
- For the cheesecake filling, in a large bowl (again, I usually use my blender) with an electric mixer, stand or handheld, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave on low power until just warm and melted (don't overheat). Let the chocolate cool for a few minutes. Scrape it into the bowl/blender with the cream cheese mixture and add the vanilla extract. Whip until smooth and light in texture and color.
- Fold in 2/3 of the whipped cream until combined and very creamy.
- Divide the cheesecake mixture evenly among the dessert cups/glasses/bowls. Top with a dollop of leftover sweetened whipped cream, sprinkle any leftover crust crumbs over the top and add an extra Thin Mint for garnish, if desired.
- These can be made and refrigerated, lightly covered in plastic wrap, for up to a day.
Notes
- Thin Mints: if you don't have Thin Mints, try using mint Oreos or experiment with other chocolate cookies. You could also try your hand at homemade Thin Mints.
