Mini Cheesecakes
We had a few friends over for birthday treats on Sunday evening. I forget how much fun it is to invite people into your home. Earlier in the afternoon, Laura helped me make mini cheesecakes with my fancy new pan. I love anything mini or bite size. These were no exception. They were easy and completely darling. Thanks for your help, sister. You're a great assistant.
The recipe/instructions:
Melt 6 tablespoons of butter and mix with 1 & 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup of sugar. You could also use other crumbs - oreos, chocolate graham crackers, vanilla wafers, etc. For 12 cheesecakes, fill each cup with about 1 & 1/2 tablespoons of crumb mixture. Press into the bottoms and sides of the pan. I covered the sides about half way up.
For the filling, mix together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup of sugar, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Pour the batter on top of the crusts and smooth out the tops. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes.

They look wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing all of your fun recipes. Your the best!
I had some pumpkin cheesecake that was absolutely divine last Sunday, and I'm not usually a big pumpkin fan. I'm going on a hunt for the recipe. It would make fantastic mini cheesecakes.
Cub Momma--I'm making Alicia's pumpkin cheesecakes for a little Thanksgiving treat this year. . . hope all the hungry cub bears will be there. For Lori's sake, I'm planning on some serious baby bear time that weekend, too!
Alicia--HUNT.
