- 12 lemon Oreo cookies or regular Oreo
- 8 ounces vegan cream cheese
- 6 tablespoons coconut cream or plain dairy free yogurt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 4 tablespoons melted coconut oil refined for no coconut flavor
- 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam see Notes for options
Line a 12 cup muffin pan with paper liners and place an Oreo cookie in the bottom of each cup.
In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, or using a handheld mixer, beat together the cream cheese, coconut cream or yogurt, sugar, lemon juice and vanilla. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed and mix until smooth and creamy.
With the mixer running on low, drizzle in the melted coconut oil and mix until it's incorporated. The filling should start to thicken.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, scoop about 3 tablespoons of the filling on top of each crust. Use a small spoon to spread it evenly.
Warm the jam in the microwave for about 30 seconds and stir until smooth. Place about a teaspoon in the middle of each cheesecake, then use a toothpick to swirl it into the white layer.
Chill in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours until firm. Enjoy!
- You may use lemon Oreos or any other flavor you like. For gluten free, use gluten free Oreo cookies. You may use other brands as well, like Newman's Own or Trader Joe's.
- Any brand of vegan cream cheese you like should work here since we aren't baking. I like Tofutti, Kite Hill, Trader Joe's and Violife.
- May use any flavor of jam you like, or top with fresh fruit, lemon curd, Oreo cookie crumbs or chocolate ganache.
