Would love to hear from you.

    I make mini cheesecakes, no-bake. I make chocolate cups, using cupcake liners and melted chocolate. Let set, remove papers and fill with cheesecake. Top with anything. Did some for a wedding colors were orange and yellow. The cheesecake was yellow so I topped with mandrain oranges. You can make them any size a cupcake paper comes in. Made some last week topped with whipped cream and a strawberry.
    For my daughters seacadets years ago I made cheesecakes in cupcake papers, put a cookie in bottom, first. If they sit too long the cookie gets soggy. I used small wedges of cantalope. kiwi and strawberry. Very colorful.

    hostarhodo.......how do you make your chocolate liners? That sounds very good with the cheesecake! Yum, I can see a chocolate dipped strawberry on top!

    For the chocolate cups, put a cupcake paper in muffin tin and melt chocolate and use a spoon to coat the paper. Put in fridge, when hardened remove paper and fill with no bake cheesecake. Been doing chocolate strawberries this last year, they are so good. You can do the dark or white
    chocolate for the cups also the strawberries, I find the white takes longer to set. I am doing some cups for my daughter's wedding this month. Filling with blueberry icecream, her color is blue.
