  • 2 8oz Bricks of Cream Cheese Room Temperature

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  • Press 1 1/2 tbsp crust mixture into the bottom of 12 silicone baking cups and set aside on a baking sheet.
  • In a stand mixer, mix all the filling ingredients, except the eggs.
  • When the cream cheese mixture is blending, slowly beat in the eggs. It will look like a cake batter.
  • Add the filling mixture to the crust-lined, baking cups. Fill to 3/4 full.
  • Gently lift and tap baking sheet holding the cheesecakes on the counter to release any air bubbles.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the center is almost set.

  • Serve plain… or top with your favorite fresh fruit, pie filling, jams, or crushed candy bar.

Notes

If you want a chocolate crust you can use chocolate graham crackers, or crushed Oreos.
We make these in our air fryer toaster oven and it works great.
