Here's an Amazing Recipe that has been one of our family favorites for as long as I can remember.

Mini Cheese Cakes
Preheat oven 370 degrees
Aluminum Muffin Foils (not paper) to hold the Cheese cakes -they go inside regular Muffin pan get your pans ready.
1- Box Vanilla Wafer Cookies (these go in the bottom of the muffin tins -see below for tip*)
2- 8 oz cream cheese softened (blend together)
4- eggs (add one at a time)
1/2 cup sugar (blend into mixture)
1 tsp almond extract (blend into mixture)
* Use a glass measuring cup or spoon to put a quarter size amount of the above mixture in the bottom of each of your muffin foils, add the cookie and press it down into the mixture. Then add the remaining mixture on top of cookie -about half full. "Gluing" the cookie down with mixture will help keep cookie from floating up into the middle of cheese cake.)
Cook for 15 min-18min 370 degrees (cheese cakes should not be too jiggly and may crack, but should not be brown on top)
cools 5 min then add topper.
Topper:
2- cups sour cream
6- Tbls Sugar
1- tsp almond ext
(blend above ingredients)
5 min
Chill 4-6 hours

1 Can of Cherries and 1 tsp Almond Extract and Chill before serving

Hope you all enjoy!!!

You can also use different type of berries or even chocolate and nuts to top these off with. My husband and I had these at our wedding in addition to our wedding cakes. They were wonderful!
