THE BEST recipe ever for Mini Cheesecakes! My kids beg me to make these again and again!
Our oldest kiddo, Silas, turned 8 years old last month. Whenever I make treats to possibly photograph and post the recipe for you all, the boys taste test and tell me what they think. I know the recipe is a real winner when they ask, “Mom, can you make this for me for my birthday?” So, when Silas’ birthday rolled around, I had a few ideas of past desserts he’s loved in my mind as possibilities. You could imagine my surprise when I asked him what he wanted me to make for his birthday dessert this year. Mini cheesecakes.
It’s been YEARS since I’ve tried a new mini cheesecake recipe.
I really have no clue where he came up with that idea, but I went with it! I’m not going to argue with the kid, I LOVE cheesecake!
