Easter “Dump” Cheesecake
When we ended up coming home with huge bags of candy anyway, I decided to do something different with it. Instead of the bags sitting in the kids room and them munching on it whenever they wanted, I made a cheesecake.
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 2 8-ounce bars cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/2 c sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/2 c of candy bars chopped
- 1 8-inch chocolate cookie piecrust
- 2 tbsp. melted butter
Instructions
- Place cream cheese into bowl of stand mixer. Mix on medium-low speed for 30 seconds. Add in sugar and eggs and beat until smooth.
- Remove bowl from stand and stir in chopped candy bars.
- In a small bowl combine the Oreo pie crusts and the butter gently with a fork.
- Prepare a 6-inch spring-form pan and then press the Oreo mixture into the pan and up the sides.
- Pour the filling into the pan and bake until set, 35-40 minutes at 325 degrees.
- Set the pie on a wire rack and let it cool completely. (at least 4 hours)
- Cover cheesecake in any remaining candy and serve.
