Happy Halloween!

Oreo Pumpkin Cheesecakes

24 whole Halloween Oreos

16 oz. cream cheese, softened

1 c. sugar

1 t. vanilla

1 c. pumpkin

2 eggs

1/2 t. cinnamon

1/4 t. nutmeg

4 T. flour

1 pinch salt

1 c. chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 325. Line 24 muffin tins with paper liners. Place 1 oreo at the bottom of each muffin liner.

In large bowl, mix cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Add vanilla, pumpkin, and eggs and mix well. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, flour, and salt and mix until smooth. Add a heaping spoonful of cheesecake batter over Oreos. Bake 20-25 minutes. Cool.

Once cheesecakes are cool, remove from muffin tin and remove paper wrapper. Microwave chocolate chips in 30 second increments, stirring until melted. Take a sandwich bag and spoon melted chocolate inside. Cut the very corner of the bag (a very small piece!), and pipe melted chocolate in circles on top of cheesecakes. Drag the end of a toothpick through the chocolate to create a spider's web look, starting at the center and dragging outward. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
