1. 1.treheat oven to 375F. Liberally grease and flour (or use paper liners) a mini muffin tin.
2. 2.tream butter and sugars together until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla and combine until smooth.

4. 4.tn the bowl of a food processor combine Oreo cookie crumbs and half (4 ounces) of the cream cheese until well combined. This is your filling mixture.
5. 5.tsing a medium (1.5 Tablespoon) cookie scoop, scoop out cookie dough into each cup of the mini muffin tins. Gently form the dough up the sides of the tin, creating a depression.
6. 6.take some of that Oreo filling goodness and scoop about 1 -1 1/2 teaspoonfuls into the cookie dough cup.
7. 7.take a small amount of the remaining cookie dough and place on top of the filling and pinch together the sides and the top of the dough, so that the filling doesn't ooze out.
8. 8.take for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
9. 9.tor frosting, combine remaining cream cheese (4 ounces), brown sugar, 1/4 cup butter, vanilla and cinnamon. Once fully combined, add in powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time. Add almond milk to help thin to desired consistency. I like mine pretty thick so 1 Tablespoon of milk was perfect.
