mini cheesecake
it was one of friends idea to bake this cheesecake mixture in muffin tins. i thought it was briliant as one individual serving can be served as one portion of indulgence. use your favorite topping. i just love to top them with passionfruits as they are growing healthily on our orchard fence. passionfruits
