(why can I remember that but not remember things like do you store Cefprozil suspension in the fridge? when is generic Diovan coming out? What are important counseling points on glycopyrrolate including what the brand name is?. ugh.)
Anyways! My point was- that sundae was delish & I REALLY miss it! So here is my dedication to the sundae- introducing my cherry blossom mini cheesecakes- I consulted many of my recipes & miss-mashed them to create this recipe here:
Cherry Blossom Mini Cheesecakes
Ingredients---
Crust:
-1 1/4 c crushed chocolate cookies (I use oreos & scrape out the cream...and eat some of the cream so it's not wasted!!!)
-3 tbsp butter
-1/4 (ish) c mini chocolate chips
Cheesecake:
-2 (8oz) cream cheese, room temp
-3/4 c white sugar
-2 eggs
-1 tsp vanilla
-1 (21 oz) can cherry pie filling
-Hershey's syrup
Directions:
-to make the crust- crush chocolate cookies; melt butter & mix in cookie crumbs. let cool slightly & stir in chocolate chips. Press a spoonful of this mixture in the bottom of a lined cupcake pan- makes 18 (or so) cheesecakes
 |
| chocolate! |
---I dropped a cherry from the pie filling on the top of the crust layer on every cheesecake
-Cheesecake- preheat oven to 350 degrees
-Beat the cream cheese until smooth, mix in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla
-Spoon some of the cherry syrup from the pie mix into the cheesecake batter & swirl (didn't measure, and mine didn't even look pretty it just all turned pink....can't say presentation is my strong suit)
 |
| I thought this was SUCH a great idea! but my skills were lacking! |
-dispense batter evenly amongst cupcake pans
 |
| mmm chocolate. cherry. cheesecake. what's not to love? |
-bake for 20 minutes
-let the cheesecakes cool
----top with cherry pie filling & drizzle Hershey's syrup over the top
 |
| these are kinda messy with the Hershey's syrup but oooo good stuff! |
-store in refrigerator and ENJOY!
