MINI BUTTERFINGER CHEESECAKES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 2 24-count mini muffin tins with paper liners. (Alternatively, use a standard 12-count muffin tin.)
• Add the chocolate sandwich cookies to a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the melted butter and pulse until combined.
• In a medium bowl, use an electric hand mixer on medium speed to beat together the cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until light and fluffy, 5 minutes.
• Assemble the cheesecakes: Scoop ½ teaspoon of the cookie crumb mixture into each paper liner and press down in an even layer. Add ½ teaspoon of the crushed Butterfinger® Bits over the cookie crust. Fill the liner to the top with the cream cheese filling.
• Bake for 15 minutes, or until the mini cheesecakes are light golden brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and let cool for 20 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill.
• Before serving, add the whipped topping to a piping bag fitted with a star-shaped tip. Pipe a dollop of the whipped topping on top of each mini cheesecake and sprinkle the remaining Butterfinger® Bits on top. Serve cold. Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
• Enjoy!

GINGERBREAD CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan. Wrap the outside of the springform pan 3 to 4 times with aluminum foil.
• Mix cookie crumbs and melted butter together until mixture resembles wet sand. Press into the prepared springform pan until bottom is evenly covered.
• Combine cream cheese and brown sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add molasses, lemon juice, vanilla extract, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, allspice, and salt; mix until well combined. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating briefly after each addition until just combined. Pour batter over the crust in the pan. Tap the pan on the counter several times to remove any air bubbles.
• Place the springform pan into a larger baking pan, and fill the baking pan with 1 inch hot water, making sure no water gets into the cheesecake batter.
• Bake in the water bath in the preheated oven until the edges of the cheesecake are set and the middle jiggles slightly, about 1 hour. Turn off the oven without removing the cheesecake, leaving it inside until cooled, 1 to 2 hours.
• Remove from the oven and water bath. Run the tip of a table knife around the edges of the springform pan before removing to a serving platter. Refrigerate until completely chilled, at least 4 hours.
• Combine whipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt for the cinnamon whipped cream in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form; do not overmix.
• Top cheesecake with whipped cream just before serving.
