How to Make
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin by lining it with cupcake liners for easy removal.
- Mix the crushed Oreo crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of each muffin liner to create your delicious crust.
- Melt the semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly before adding to the batter.
- Beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar together in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add in the unsweetened cocoa powder, room temperature sour cream, and pure vanilla extract, mixing until everything is well combined and the batter is fluffy.
- Incorporate the room temperature eggs into the batter one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully blended.
- Gradually pour in the melted chocolate, stirring gently until the batter is rich and well-mixed.
- Spoon the cheesecake mixture into each muffin liner, filling them about 3/4 full to allow for slight rising during baking.
- Bake in your preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly jiggly.
- Cool them on a wire rack for about 30 minutes before transferring them to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours.
- Whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then dollop or pipe the whipped cream onto each cheesecake. Finish with a sprinkle of chocolate shavings.

Notes
For an extra touch, top with fresh berries. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smooth batter.
