Mini Cheesecakes

These mini cheese cakes are the bomb! I can see these topped with all different fruits-blueberries, strawberries, sugared oranges–or nothing at all…

Mini Cheesecakes

INGREDIENTS:

12 Nilla wafers
1-8 ounce packages cream cheese-at room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
Any type of toppings: canned pie filling, fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, etc.

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  In an electric mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar.  Add in flour and baking powder and beat to combine.  Then add in eggs, one at a time, lemon juice and vanilla.  Beat to combine.

Fill a muffin pan with cupcake lines and place one Nilla wafer at the bottom of each cup.  Divide batter between the 12 muffin cups filling each about 1/4 inch from the top.  Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.  They’ll puff way up during baking and then settle down when they chill.  Chill in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours, then fill with your favorite topping.

    I will take the one with raspberries. These look so fun and I love an individual dessert. I received the Starbuck's certificate and already used it. Fell in love with the Maple Oat Pecan scones — yum! Thanks Annie! Joni

    I could just pop these in my mouth throughout the day and be a happy camper! So pretty too!

    My aunt Carol gave me this recipe years ago and I lost it. She passed away a couple of weeks ago. I am so glad to see it here on your blog! My favorite is with the Blueberry Filling topped with a single fresh blueberry…..yum!
