I've been making these for practically every function I attend since finding them in a magazine - there are NEVER any left! People rant and rave, and beg for the recipe (they can hardly believe it's so easy). If I make them too far in advance, they mysteriously disappear from my fridge, with my husband and me accusing one another about who illegally ate more than whom. Thanks for posting! This recipe is a keeper!

These look fabulous in the photograph, and they taste just as scrumptious as they look! Although Sharlene~W’s instructions couldn’t have been clearer, the photograph helped me enormously in having the confidence to proceed with this recipe. I wasn’t entirely sure what sort of wafers had been used but looking at the photograph enabled me to improvise an appropriate base for these tarts: crushed Granita biscuits mixed with melted butter, a popular base for cheesecakes in Australia. These were SO easy to make. I filled some with halved, pitted black cherries and some with raspberries (both from cans, as they’re not in season here). The contrast of colours looked great. Absolutely delicious: everyone just LOVED them, and clearly imagined that they had taken a lot longer to make than in fact they had! I’ll be making these again when berries are in season. Thanks, Sharlene~W, for another fabulous recipe!

These little gems turned out great. I did get nervous because I shure could have gotten more then 12 mini cheesecakes. I think I "over beat" my cream cheese mixture. I kept adding more and more mixture to each cheesecake. As it turned out I did get 2 extra. These do puff up alot, almost like a soufle. I thought I blew the whole recipe, but everything turned out great. My store eve has mini nilla wafers I thought I might try those next and make some bite size next time. I saw Paula do these and I to had to try them.
