Cranberry Caramel Pecan Mini Cheesecakes

You all remember those delightfully delicious and ridiculously easy Oreo Cheesecake Bites, right? Well, I’ve given them a sophisticated and delectable upgrade. Cranberry Caramel Pecan Cheesecake Bites. You heard that right, people. These are just as easy but a whole other flavor profile, and at this point I can’t decide which is my favorite. Here’s how I made them…

To make 18 mini cheesecakes you will need:

  • Vanilla Creme* Cookies (18 whole cookies)
  • two 6 oz boxes of cream cheese at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup of sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup Dried Cranberries (chopped)
  • 1/3 cup chopped Pecans 
  • Caramel sauce (<<I like this kind)
  • cupcake liners

Preheat the oven to 275 degrees, place the cupcake liners in muffin tins, then place a Vanilla Creme* at the bottom of each one.

Making mini cheese cake bites

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until it is smooth.  Add in the sugar and mix until smooth.  Mix in the beaten eggs and the vanilla, scraping down the sides of the bowl when necessary.  Add in the sour cream and salt.  Mix well.  Carefully spoon batter into lined muffin tins over the Vanilla Creme* cookies until they are filled about 2/3 of the way.

chopped pecans and cranberries

Coarsely chop the pecans and the cranberries, combine and add a spoonful to the top of each cheesecake.  Drizzle caramel sauce  over the top of the pecan cranberry mixture.  Bake at 275 for about 20 – 23 minutes until set.  Let cool completely and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

To serve, carefully peel off the cupcake liners and arrange on a platter.  Sprinkle with chopped fresh basil, if desired.  (It’s pretty and smells so good!)

Makes 18 mini cheesecakes. Aaaaand you’re welcome! Enjoy!

    In addition, you will also be providing yourself having a work environment which is much more conducive
    to truly getting things done. It is very important in case of organic
    SEO campaign where results trickle gradually over the
    long time of time. When you live outside these countries then you definitely end up with little surveys to fill.

    ” Not being a philosopher or even a physicist, I’m not going to delve into that subject in print, but I can advise you that, from the marketing standpoint, the net marketing effect for the business mentioned previously would have been a big fat zero. In breaking news from The Age, it really is reported how the carbon tax will hit each and every Australian which has a hefty price tag of $40,000 by 2050 coming to a massive $1 trillion hit for the Australian economy. Politicians are the types who lead to further problems then campaign against them.

    Stick with what you are doing, or find another and much better online marketing strategy to switch the classified ad strategy.
    There are many blog networks around where you can submit you and promote your blog.
    Would your projects start a brand new perspective or wouldn’t it
    just invoke a ‘what’s new’ response.
