Instructions

1 Mixing the Filling: In an electric mixer, use the paddle attachment to mix the
ream cheese filling, eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla. Once combined, scrape down
the sides of the mixer.
2 Smoothing the Mixture: Switch to the whipping attachment and mix for one minute
to achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
3 Prepare the Cupcake Papers: Start by laying out the cupcake papers on a cookie
sheet. These will serve as the molds for your mini cheesecakes.

Adding the Crust: Into each cupcake paper, add the crushed vanilla wafer crumbs.
This forms the base of your cheesecake crust. The amount of crumbs can vary
based on your preference, but ensure there's enough to cover the bottom of each
paper.

Placing the Butter: On top of the vanilla wafer crumbs in each cup, place a
small pat of butter. The size of the butter slice should be small but sufficient
to cover a good portion of the crumb mixture. As the cheesecakes bake, this
butter will melt and mix with the crushed wafers, helping to bind the crust
together and giving it a rich, buttery flavor.

Adding the Cheesecake Filling: Once your crust is prepared with the crumbs and
butter, it's time to add the cheesecake filling. Carefully spoon or scoop the
cheesecake mixture into each cup, filling them to just below the top. This
allows room for the cheesecake to rise slightly without overflowing during the
baking process.

Ensuring Even Distribution: Make sure to distribute the cheesecake filling
evenly among the cups. An ice cream scoop can be a handy tool for this step, as
it helps to ensure each mini cheesecake has an equal amount of filling.
4 Preheated oven 325. Bake on the middle rack in your oven. Check after 10
minutes. They are done once the tops of the cheesecakes start to brown. Yet, we
are not looking for much color on top, if any.
