All To Myself Cheesecakes

This is incredible. I make it frequently. It is a huge hit at the office.
Dated 1976.

12 chocolate sandwich cookies with white filling
16 ounces softened cream cheese
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate pieces
2 teaspoons shortening

Split cookies, keeping filling on one cookie. Line muffin pans with foil
baking cups. Place filling covered cookie in bake cups, filling side up.
Set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla
until smooth and fluffy. Beat in eggs just until well mixed. Spoon cream
cheese mixture into bake cups. Crush remaining cookies and sprinkle over
cream cheese mixture. Bake, uncovered, in 325 oven for 25 minutes. Cool.
In a small saucepan, melt chocolate pieces with shortening over low heat,
stirring frequently. Drizzle over baked cheesecakes. Cover and chill.
