FAQs

Can I make these cheesecakes without a mixer?

Yes, you can mix the ingredients by hand using a sturdy spoon or whisk, but beating the cream cheese until smooth may take a bit more effort. Make sure the cream cheese is very soft to make mixing easier.

Is it necessary to use cupcake liners in the muffin tin?

Cupcake liners make it easier to remove the mini cheesecakes from the tin and serve them cleanly. However, you can also grease the muffin tin well or use silicone molds as alternatives.
