Individual Cheesecakes

The basic cheesecake mixture can be baked in pastry cases, Yorkshire pudding tins or muffin tins to make cheese tarts in individual portions. Alternatively, metal rings can be used. Stand the rings on a baking sheet. 1 quantity Pâte Sucrée as made for baked cheesecake and ½ quantity cheesecake filling will line and fill 12 muffin tins.

1. Grease the muffin tins well and line with Pâte Sucrée. Trim the pastry to the tops of the tins, then part-bake the bases for about 10 minutes.

   

2. Spoon the mixture into the cases so they are two-thirds full. Add a little blackcurrant jam and bake for about 25-30 minutes at 160°C. Decorate once cold.
