1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Neon green food coloring, to taste

# How to Make It:
01 -
Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and put paper liners in a regular muffin tin.
02 -
Grind Oreos in a food processor till you get fine crumbs. Mix in the melted butter and blend till everything sticks together.
03 -
Divide the Oreo mixture between the paper cups and push down hard to make a solid bottom layer.
04 -
In a bowl, whip the room temperature cream cheese with sugar until it's smooth. Beat in eggs one by one, then add vanilla, mixing just enough to combine.
05 -
Add neon green food coloring and mix until you get a bright Grinch-like green color.
06 -
Put about 1/4 cup of the green cheesecake mix into each paper liner, making sure they're all filled equally.
07 -
Pop them in the hot oven for 15-17 minutes, or until the middles wobble slightly but the edges look firm.
08 -
Take them out and let them cool completely in the pan. Then move the cheesecakes to the fridge and chill until they're totally set.
09 -
If you want, put a dollop of whipped cream and some sprinkles on top of each mini cheesecake before serving.
