how to make mini cheesecakes at home

1. First grab a medium mixing bowl and beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy using an electric mixer.
2. Next, you want to add the sweetened condensed milk in small increments, beating between each addition.
3. Now you can fold in the whipped topping using a rubber spatula.
4. Next, you want to divide the cheesecake mixture evenly among the five waffle cups and pop it in the refrigerator to chill for about an hour. Remember, you can stretch this filling into six waffle bowls if you need to.
5. Finally, once they are chilled well, top each bowl with fresh strawberries and blueberries before serving.

How do you thicken a no bake cheesecake?

Generally no bake cheesecake starts with cream cheese as a base, which is what we have done here in this recipe. Adding the condensed milk and the whipped topping is exactly what needs to be done to thicken the “cheesecake” which is why we added both of those to this recipe.

How can I serve mini cheesecakes?

We chose to use the ice cream waffle bowls in this recipe, but if you don’t have any you can certainly use parfait dishes, ramekins or any small food safe bowl or container. Honestly, you could even serve them in reusable silicone cupcake liners.

What happens if no bake cheesecake doesn’t set?

If for some reason the mini cheesecakes are not setting after one hour in the fridge, you can either let them set overnight, or you can pop them in the freezer for a bit. You do not want to freeze them too long because then it will be more like ice cream and not a smooth cheesecake.
