For a richer flavor, use full-fat cream cheese. To prevent cracking, bake the cheesecakes in a water bath. Place the muffin tin inside a larger baking pan and add hot water to the larger pan until it reaches halfway up the sides of the muffin tin. This helps to maintain a moist environment in the oven. For a smoother texture, ensure the cream cheese is fully softened before mixing. Feel free to experiment with different pie fillings or toppings, such as fresh berries, chocolate ganache, or a sprinkle of nuts. These mini cheesecakes can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
