- 24 gluten-free cream-filled sandwich cookies 16 left whole & 8 coarsely chopped (*or 12 whole, see notes)
- 1 pound (16 ounces) cream cheese room temperature
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon GF vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs room temperature, lightly beaten
- ½ cup sour cream
- small pinch of salt
Preheat oven to 275 degrees (135 C). Line 16 standard muffin tins (*or 12 large muffin tins) with paper liners. Place 1 whole cookie in the bottom of each lined cup.
With an electric mixer on medium high speed, beat cream cheese until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Gradually add sugar, and beat until combined. Beat in vanilla.
Drizzle in eggs, a bit at a time, beating to combine and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in sour cream and salt. Stir in chopped cookies by hand.
Divide batter evenly among cookie-lined cups, filling each almost to the top. Bake, rotating pan halfway through, until filling is set, about 22-25 minutes (*24-27 minutes for 12 large cupcakes). Transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Refrigerate at least 4 hours (or up to overnight). Remove from tins just before serving.
Keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Makes 16 cheesecake cupcakes (or 12 HEAPING ones.) If you are making 12, expect to bake 2-3 minutes longer for filling to set.
