Ingredients
20 Oreo cookies, crushed (reserve a few for topping)
4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup powdered sugar
½ tsp peppermint extract
½ cup whipped topping (or whipped cream)
½ cup crushed peppermint candies (or candy canes)
Optional: White chocolate, for drizzling
Instructions
Prepare the crust: In a bowl, mix the crushed Oreo cookies (minus the reserved amount) with melted butter until well combined. Press a spoonful of the mixture into the bottoms of mini cupcake liners or silicone molds to form the crust.
Make the filling: In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and peppermint extract, and mix until creamy.
Fold in whipped topping: Gently fold in the whipped topping and crushed peppermint candies until evenly combined.
Assemble the bites: Spoon the cream cheese mixture over each Oreo crust, filling to the top.
Add toppings: Sprinkle reserved crushed Oreos and extra crushed peppermint on top. If desired, drizzle with melted white chocolate.
Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the bites are firm.
Serve and enjoy: Remove from the liners and serve chilled
