No Crust Bite Size Cheesecakes
When you need a little treat, a crustless mini cheesecake is the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth.
The recipe is simple and you can get creative with the toppings.
This bite size dessert trio has cheesecakes topped with fresh strawberry, lemon curd and strawberry jam.
You can use these same toppings as mine or choose something else that makes your mouth water.
The no crust cheesecake is good on its own, but the toppings make it extra fun.
The bite size cheesecakes are baked in a regular mini muffin pan, so you don’t need a springform pan like bigger cheesecakes need.
If you have kids who like to help in the kitchen, they will have fun mixing the ingredients and adding the toppings to the finished mini treats.
