How to Make Little Cheesecakes

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces (225g) of cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
  3. Gradually add 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, beating until well combined.
  4. Add 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  6. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Place one chocolate wafer in the bottom of each liner.
  7. Evenly spoon the cream cheese mixture over the chocolate wafers, filling each liner about ¾ full.
  8. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is just slightly jiggly.
  9. Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the cheesecakes cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  10. Refrigerate the cheesecakes in the muffin tin for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow them to fully chill and set.
  11. Carefully remove the cheesecakes from the muffin tin and the paper liners.
  12. Before serving, top each mini cheesecake with 1 tablespoon of cherry pie filling.
