Mini Cheesecakes With Sour Cream Topping Recipes

Steps:

• 1. 1.Preheat oven to 350*F. Grease a 6 cup muffin pan. I also cut small circles of parchment paper to line the bottom of the cups...it makes the cakes easier to remove once completed.
• 2. 2.In small bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter until combined. Distribute mixture evenly into muffin cups and press firmly. Bake for 5 minutes, then allow to cool while making the filling.
• 3. 3.In a medium bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, milk, vanilla and flour until light and fluffy. Mix in egg. Pour mixture into prepared muffin cups. Bake for 15 minutes.
• 4. 4.In small bowl, mix sour cream with remaining sugar and vanilla. Top each cake with a small dollop and return to oven for an additional 10 minutes.
• 5. 5.Allow to cool completely before removing from pan. Refrigerate. Top with fresh fruit and/or chocolate to add more color and flavor! Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Mix graham crumbs, 3 Tbsp. sugar and butter; press onto bottom of 9-inch springform pan. Bake 10 min.
• Beat cream cheese, 3/4 cup sugar, lemon zest, juice and 1/2 tsp. vanilla with mixer until well blended. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating on low speed after each just until blended. Pour over crust.
• Bake 55 min. to 1 hour or until center is almost set. Mix sour cream, remaining sugar and vanilla until well blended; carefully spread over cheesecake. Bake 10 min. Run knife around rim of pan to loosen cake; cool before removing rim. Refrigerate 4 hours.

Steps:

• Lightly butter a 7-inch springform pan.
• Combine cream cheese and 1 cup sugar in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer on high speed for 3 minutes. Mix in eggs, one at a time, beating about 2 minutes after each addition. Add cream, flour, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract; mix well. Transfer batter to the prepared pan. Wrap the pan tightly in aluminum foil so no water can get inside.
• Pour 1 cup of water into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and place a trivet in the bottom. Carefully center the filled pan onto the trivet. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 40 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Carefully remove the foil. The cake should be barely set in the center. Allow to cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, combine sour cream, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a bowl; mix until smooth. Spread over the top of the cooled cheesecake, cover, and chill for at least 4 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line four 12-cup cupcake tins with heavyweight aluminum liners, and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping down sides as needed.
• In a large bowl, whisk together sugar and flour. With mixer on low speed, gradually add sugar mixture to cream cheese; mix until smooth. Add sour cream and vanilla; mix until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until just combined; do not overmix.
• Divide batter evenly among cupcake liners, 4 ounces per cupcake. Bake for 15 minutes.
• Cool slightly until cupcakes become concave. In a medium bowl, stir together sour cream, sugar, and vanilla to make the sour cream topping.
• Place a heaping tablespoon of topping in the center of each cupcake, and spread gently to edges of liner. Return to oven for 10 minutes.
• Cool to room temperature on a wire rack and chill in the refrigerator until cold, at least two hours. Add small bunches of currants for decoration if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Cream together cream cheese and sugar. Add eggs one at time, blending well. Add vanilla and sour cream. Pour into shortbread crust.
• Bake for 60 to 70 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cake jiggles evenly across the top when lightly shaken. Run a knife around the outside edge, but leave the cake in the pan. Let cool on counter, then place in refrigerator. Remove from pan when completely chilled, and serve.
