Here are a couple of insider tips:

• Room temperature ingredients = smoother batter. So let those eggs and cream cheese hang out on the counter for a bit!
• Experiment with different toppings. How about a chocolate ganache or some caramel sauce? Go wild!
• Don’t overbake! You want them to come out slightly jiggly—the residual heat will finish the job.

Variation

Feel like switching things up? Try adding a little lemon zest for a citrus twist, or consider making these mini cheesecakes vegan by substituting the cream cheese with a nut-based one and using coconut cream for the whipped topping. Sky’s the limit!
