Need Recipe for Mini Cheesecakes

[cookingmom]

I just got the Mini Muffin Pan and I'm looking for a recipe for mini cheesecakes. I thought it would be great for a show and also for "servicing my local businesses"! I'm having a hard time finding a good one, though. Most recipes I've found use the regular muffin pan!

I appreciate any help!

Here is one from my favorite Non-PC recipe site: allrecipes.com I love that site cuz people "rate" the recipes after making them! I never make a recipe without tons of good reviews, so I hardly ever find a DUD recipe there!

Anita, you could also do the vanilla wafers on the bottom and spoon the new philadelpha cheesecake pie filling right into it. Talk about an easy way to whip up a dessert!
