Appetizer Cheesecakes?

Question

I am looking for new recipes.
Thank you!

Answer 1

Well, I don't know how to make cheesecake. Let me start off that way. But. My mom used to make some killer stuff. She took a cheese cake recipe, and instead of putting it in a pie plate or whatever, put it in cupcake cups. That's the first thing I thought of when I saw 'appetizer cheesecake'. Just an idea.

Answer 3

Okay, I am not sure if I got this recipe from Kraft.com or not. But if you get a muffin pan and layer it with cupcake paper holders then stick a vanilla wafer on the bottom for the crust and then add your favorite cheesecake recipe and top with you favorite topping like cherries, strawberries, blueberries, or even crushed oreos. Then refrigerate until serving.
