These Oreo Shamrock McFlurry Cheesecake Bites are made with cream cheese, vanilla ice cream, peppermint extract, and lots of Oreos.
I hope you have enjoyed my Shamrock Shake Weekend.
Celebrating the 50 year anniversary of the Shamrock Shake.
I am rounding out the Shamrock Shake weekend with these Oreo Shamrock McFlurry Cheesecake Bites.
A nod to the newer creation, the Oreo Shamrock McFlurry.
Basically the same as the shake just a little more ice cream and of course the addition of Oreo cookies.
These are very simple to make and would make for a great St. Patrick’s Day treat.
An Oreo Shamrock McFlurry is made up of vanilla soft serve ice cream, peppermint syrup, and Oreo’s. These cheesecake cupcakes stay true to the McFlurry by using melted vanilla ice cream in the batter.
As well as peppermint flavoring.
And of course, Oreo’s.
All in a portable cheesecake bite.
I used regular Oreo’s because that is all we had in the house but I would totally use Double Stuff because I am always pro more filling.
As with all cheesecakes you want to make sure that the cream cheese is at room temperature.
You want to cream the cream cheese until it is completely smooth.
No one likes a chunky cheesecake.
If you are feeling the need for booze in these feel free.
Creme de Mente or the Tippy Cow Shamrock Shake would go nicely in these.
If you do add them I would reduce the amount of vanilla ice cream to 1/3 cup and add 1/4 of the liqueur.
Be sure to order my cookbook.
