How to make mini cheesecakes

If you remember my Mini Lemon Cheesecakes, you know how much I raved about my cheesecake pan. The mini cheesecake pan is a staple in my kitchen. It’s easy to use and the cheesecakes pop right out. Simply press the graham cracker mixture to the bottom, fill with batter, bake and let cool before pressing on the bottom plate. The pan is almost like a mini version of a spring form pan. The plates in each cavity come out so you can easily press the mini cheesecake out. The pan makes 12 cheesecakes; if you’re planning a big party you may want to grab two! This recipe makes about 16 mini cheesecakes but can easily be doubled.
