Different ways to change up this recipe: 

• To make these even lower in points, use fat free cream cheese. It’s a zero point food and can be found at Walmart. Great Value is the only brand I’ve seen that offers fat free cream cheese. 
• You can use Lily’s no sugar added dark chocolate baking chips instead of Lindt dark chocolate if you prefer. It would save a minimal amount of points. 
• You can omit the chocolate drizzle and do a caramel drizzle instead if you prefer. I suggest Smucker’s sugar free caramel topping. You could also just add crushed Oreos to the finished cheesecakes for a cute topping. 

Tips and Tricks for Making Oreo Cheesecake Cups: 

• The longer you chill the cheesecakes, the easier they will come out of the paper liners. I suggest leaving them in the fridge overnight if you can. It saves time on the day of serving! 
• Chocolate holds its shape even if it’s melted, which is why 30 second microwave intervals and stirring is so important. If you just stick the chocolate in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, it’ll burn. 
• These cheesecake cups keep well in the fridge for up to 7 days. You can also freeze them in a sealed container for up to 3 months. I suggest making a large batch and freezing them so you can just pull a few out as needed.
