I like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and I like cheesecake.
So why not mix them together and make something awesome?
This is kind of my own recipe. I merged a bunch into what I thought was best.

So why not mix them together and make something awesome?
This is kind of my own recipe. I merged a bunch into what I thought was best.
Ingredients
Crust
- 3 cups crushed Oreo cookies
- 1 cup crushed roasted peanuts (unsalted)
- 1/2 cup melted butter
Filling
- 3 8 oz. packages of cream cheese
- 1/2 sugar
- 1/2 brown sugar
- 1.5 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 24 Reese's mini Peanut butter cups, cut up into pieces
Topping
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 275 F.
- Heat up some water for the water bath.
- Crush up peanuts and Oreos. If you have a grinder, grind some of them.
- Mix the Oreo/peanut mixture with the melted butter. Pat the mixture into the pans and up the sides.
- Beat cream cheese and sugars in bowl until creamy.
- Beat in eggs and vanilla.
- Beat in sour cream.
- Mix in cut up Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.
- Pour filling into pan. *I used a springform pan and would recommend using one otherwise it will be hard to get the cheesecake out without breaking it.
- Wrap tin foil around the bottom of the pan and sides. Make sure to not cover top.
- Put in a bigger a pan. Pour in warmed water.
- Place in oven and bake for 1-1.5 hours or until set.
- Once baked, turn off oven and leave cheesecake in oven for another hour or two. This will help prevent cracks from happening.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for a little bit.
- Heat up chocolate chips and sour cream on the stove.
- Once melted, start adding the mixture on top of the cheesecake. Use a silicone spatula to spread over the whole top of the cheesecake.
- Decorate with mini peanut butter cups. Push down slightly into cheesecake.
Enjoy :-)
