Here is a yummy cheesecake pie recipe that you need to hurry and sneak in before you make your New Year’s resolutions in a few days. Or if you are like me, you can wait till February when you have given up on the whole darn diet thing and need some chocolate to cheer you up.
I made two different cheesecakes for dessert Christmas Day. This one was everyone’s favorite–by far. Even some of my brothers who were “just to full” for dessert managed to finish their pieces. And a few snuck back for more.
This is an old standby recipe that has never failed me. (And don’t tell anyone, but it is a snap to make.) I have also made it with a regular graham cracker crust and that is yummy too.

Ingredients
Chocolate Crumb Crust
- 1 1/2 cups finely crushed oreos (about 15 cookies)
- 3 Tbsp melted butter
Filling:
- 6 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 tsp flour
Glaze:
- 1/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp vegetable oil (or coconut oil)
Instructions
- Crust: Combine chocolate cookie crumbs and butter and press into a pie plate; set aside.
- Filling: Beat cream cheese in a mixing bowl till fluffy; gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk. Add egg and vanilla and mix well.
- Toss chips with flour and stir into the batter. Pour into crust.
- Bake at 350 for about 35 minutes or until center springs back when touched. Cool. Chill in refrigerator till cold.
- For glaze, melt chips and oil in a small glass bowl in the microwave. Add enough oil till chocolate is thin enough to drizzle easily. Drizzle over entire pie, or over individual servings.
Notes
- Light cream cheese doesn't work as well for this cheesecake. The filling doesn't set up as well, so the chips sink to the bottom.
-Once I accidentally purchased fat free cream cheese and tried it in this pie. It was still delicious!!
-Tossing the mini chips with flour helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
-I tried using regular size chocolate chips once, and they all sunk, even though I used flour.
