Strawberry Cheesecake Minis Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in sugar substitute and sugar. Beat in vanilla. Add egg and egg substitute; beat until blended. , Place each vanilla wafer flat side down in a foil-lined muffin cup. Fill with cream cheese mixture. Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until puffed and set. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour (centers will sink slightly). , Spoon pastry filling into the center of each cheesecake. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line 6 cups of a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
• Place melted butter for crust in a medium bowl. Stir in graham cracker crumbs and sugar until completely incorporated and mixture looks like wet sand.
• Divide crumb mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups. Use the bottom of a glass to press the crumbs down until smooth.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 5 to 6 minutes.
• While the crusts are baking, prepare filling: blend cream cheese in a stand mixer until smooth and creamy. Add sour cream and sugar and blend until smooth. Blend in vanilla. Add egg; mix on medium speed until well combined and smooth, scraping down the sides and bottom as needed.
• Remove crusts from the oven and spoon filling mixture over top. My liners were very close to overflowing; you can fill them all the way to the top.
• Return to the oven and bake until just slightly wiggly in the very center of the cheesecakes, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and cool in the tin for about 15 minutes. Carefully transfer cheesecakes to a plate and place in the refrigerator to cool for at least 3 to 4 hours.
• Combine strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and maintain a low simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Scrape sauce into a bowl and let cool until close to room temperature, 15 to 30 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• When ready to serve, plate cheesecakes and top with a generous spoonful or two of the strawberry sauce.
