While I DO have a pretty intense sweet tooth, I don’t need to eat a whole half of a pie, or even a slice, to get my fill. Thanksgiving, Christmas and birthdays being the exception, of course. Bring on the apple pie, tiramisu and layer cake!

But, during the rest of the year I love, love, love mini desserts. Just a little something sweet is all you need to satiate that sweet loving demon inside and keep trim enough for tiny swimsuits!

These mini cheesecakes are sensationally simple, delicious and super versatile – Add cocoa powder to the cream cheese mixture for chocolate cheesecake, maybe? Or how about topping the little cuties with mixed berries or chopped nuts and a caramel drizzle? No? You’re tough to please.

Okay, what about…

Oh baby.

Or, puree your favorite berries instead for an extra berry-licious addition to these already mouthwatering little morsels of dessert!

Yield: Makes 12

6-7 graham crackers

3 Tbsp. melted butter

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese or Neufchatel cheese, softened

2 large eggs

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

2/3 cup granulated sugar

Topping ideas:

Fresh berries, such as strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc.

Chopped pecans or walnuts

Fresh whipped cream

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Line muffin tins with 12 paper baking cups, or leave mini cheesecake pan unlined.

In a food processor, pulse graham crackers with melted butter until you’ve achieved wet sand consistency. Place 1 tbsp. of graham cracker mixture into each cup, gently patting into the bottom and sides of each cup.

In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Mix in eggs one at a time. Add lemon juice and sugar. Beat until smooth and thoroughly combined.

Fill each baking cup 2/3 full with cream cheese mixture.

Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Cool pan completely on a rack before removing cheesecakes.

Top with fresh berries, fruit pie filling, chopped nuts, or fresh whipped cream before serving, if desired.

Enjoy!

    Miniature-sized anything is always a plus in my book, especially if it involves cheesecake!

    I love cheesecake; I love berries; and, I love anything mini. These look divine and so very cute. Lovely work, Georgia!

    These are so pretty and I love the flavors you’ve added. Fresh fruit makes all the difference, I think.

    I’m with you, I almost always need just a bit of something sweet following a meal to complete me. My husband doesn’t understand but when he has something sweet he doesn’t snack after dinner. However, I definitely blame my mom for my sweet tooth although I’m not angry about it – I love sweets!

  6. Natalie @ Cooking for My Kids says

    July 17, 2012 at 12:57 pm

    Seriously cute! I have been eating lots of mangoes this summer and these cuties are a great reason to keep eating more.

  12. Shawn @ I Wash...You Dry says

    July 17, 2012 at 2:50 pm

    Yum, perfect size! Although I would probably eat 5 and totally ruin portion control.

  29. Bianca @ Confessions of a Chocoholic says

    July 19, 2012 at 2:30 pm

    I love mini desserts too (and coincidentally just posted about coconut cheesecake bars – also good for instant portion control). Mango whipped cream is an awesome idea!

  30. Calamity Kate says

    July 19, 2012 at 3:45 pm

    these mini cheesecakes look so good. yummy. i love that the serving size is smaller.. else you can really pack on a lot of calories with cheesecake.

    Hi Georgia, These cheesecakes look wonderful! I love the lightness of the mango puree and the berries. Fruit-based desserts are my favorite and I adore cheesecake. My mother-in-law makes a lemon curd cheesecake that is to die for and your mini cheesecakes reminded me of my MIL’s version that she has also made in mini form. It’s the perfect size for dessert and mini sizer feel like they are made just for you. Happy summer!

    The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a thirty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
