Chocolate Mascarpone Cheesecake Pots with Shortbread Spoons

The silky, rich flavor of Italian mascarpone cheese marries well with dark chocolate and makes for a sublime cheesecake, baked up smooth and buttery in little custard cups and eaten with crunchy, sweet, and delightfully edible shortbread spoons! Add a dollop of whipped cream and a few chocolate curls to the tops of these individual cheesecake pots for the perfect dinner-party dessert.
