Time 6h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

25 Thin Mints Girl Scout Cookies®, crushed
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
¾ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
10 Thin Mints Girl Scout Cookies®, crushed
1 drop peppermint extract, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap the bottom of a springform pan with aluminum foil.
  • Mix 25 crushed cookies with butter in a large bowl. Press into the bottom of a springform pan to form crust.
  • Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well between each addition. Fold in 10 crushed cookies and peppermint extract.
  • Spread cream cheese mixture over crust. Set springform pan in a deep baking dish. Pour enough water into the baking dish to come halfway up the sides of the pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until center of the cheesecake is set, 45 to 60 minutes. Turn off oven and open door slightly, leaving cheesecake inside to cool, about 1 hour. Refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours.

This cheesecake was a bit of a disappointment. The mint flavor was overpowering and the crust was too thick.
