As the creator of Disney Dinners and a lifelong Disney enthusiast, I’ve made a lot of adorable Disney desserts in my day but I think this recipe takes the cake. Here my mini chocolate chip cheesecakes, baked in Minnie Mouse’s signature red and white polka dot cupcake holders, are topped with delicious vanilla whipped cream and Oreos. These Minnie Cheesecakes are as delicious as they are adorable! They’re the perfect way to celebrate Disneyland’s anniversary today. 

Now you can serve these immediately but something really magical happens to Oreos when they’re left in frosting or whipped cream overnight in the fridge. If you know, you know. They totally transform!

24 Vanilla Wafers
