Individual Cheesecakes

Dessert? Check. Finger food? Check. Delicious? Double check. In other words, this is the perfect dessert for any fingerfoodish occasion – buffet, picnic, secret midnight munching at the fridge or otherwise, and they’re really delicious, too! Made 15 mini cakes, with some leftover cream cheese.

Edited to add: Aaah, see, that's what you get if you post too early. I was so enthusiastic about this recipe that I didn't even wait until I had tried them. However, I hardly managed to take the paper cups out of the muffin tin without squishing the cheesecakes, and the crust was slightly soggy. Minus points in the finger food category! They were delicious nonetheless.

Basically, you can do the same with any cheesecake recipe: just use a muffin tin instead of your usual baking tin; proportions of crust and filling may change, though.
