Petite Cherry Cheesecake

Ingredients

16 oz cream cheese softened
3/4 c sugar
2 eggs
1 tb lemon juice
1 t vanilla
24 vanilla wafers
21 cherry pie filling

Instructions

Beat cream cheese; sugar, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla until light and fluffy. Line muffin tins with paper baking cups, and place a vanilla wafer in the bottom of each. Fill each 2/3 full with the cream cheese mixture. Bake at 375 degrees 15 to 20 minutes, or until set. Top each with about 1 tablespoonful of the pie filling. I use different pie fillings, and sometimes more than one when making a recipe, they look very nice on frilly paper doilies, with the different colors of toppings. If you make marzipan, some green marzipan leaves look pretty on top, and at times I have made some little chocolate doodle figures to use with these. Barb Day
