Cheesecake.
Gluten Free Cheesecake.
Mini Chocolate Chip Gluten Free Cheesecakes.
That is the recipe I am featuring today.
What I love about this recipe is it allows you to vary the flavor of the cheesecake quite easily.
Want lime cheesecake?
Substitute the chocolate chips for lime zest and lime juice.
Want classic plain cheesecake?
Remove the chocolate chips and add 1 more tsp of vanilla to the batter.
Want blueberry cheesecake?
Substitute the chocolate chips for 1 cup of blueberries.
That is why I love this recipe.
Getting twelve for dinner and you want an easy dessert recipe that also presents itself in individual portions?
That would be this recipe. In fact this past Sunday that is what I made for dessert.
I substituted the chocolate cookies for gluten free graham crumbs, and I also
substituted the chocolate chips for lime zest and lime juice and topped the individual cheesecakes with whipping cream, a thin slice of lime, fresh raspberries and blueberries.
Did I say yum?
