These little tastetreats are my own creation. It is an easy and skinny version of individualcheesecakes, yet still packed with plenty of flavor. This recipe makes one dozenlittle cakes. Dress them up with a bit of fruit on top after baking and you're good to go. Sorry, there's no picture. Those two rascals I live with ate them too fast.
