In Spy Hill, Saskatchewan, reader Carol Twardzik relies on vanilla wafers to create the no-fuss crusts for these darling individual desserts. For a different look and taste, vary the kind of jam that tops these tempting treats. Ingredients:
24 vanilla wafers |
2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened |
3/4 cup sugar |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup apricot preserves |
Directions:
1. Place wafers flat side down in paper-or foil-lined muffin cups; set aside. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, lemon juice and vanilla; beat well. Fill muffin cups three-fourths full. 2. Bake at 375° for 17-20 minutes or until set. Cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Carefully remove from pans to cool completely. Top each cheesecake with 2 teaspoons preserves. Store in refrigerator. Yield: 2 dozen. |
