So tasty, cute, and totally YUMMY! All the greatness of the original versions, but MINI! No need for a traditional water bath or for the lengthy cooling time.

    Kind of bland IMO.

    Great recipe! I cut all the ingredients in half and was able to make 48 mini (bite size) cheesecakes using a graham cracker crust. Lined my mini cupcake pan with mini liners combined one cup graham cracker crumb with 4 tablespoons of butter and 4 tablespoons of sugar and pressed into the bottom of each - Read more ...

    Very tasty and simple! My co-workers who do not like pumpkin anything loved these! If you're on a budget then I recommend using cupcake tins and putting a gingersnap vanilla wafer or some other homemade cheesecake crust in the bottom. The Keebler mini tins run around 2.50 for a pack of 6 making it about - Read more ...

    Great recipe and so easy! The only thing I did differently was use a gingersnap cookie as the base for each cheesecake - quick easy and added extra flavor.

    This is by far the most delicious pumpkin flavored anything! I too let my cream cheese sit out for about an hour sifted the dry ingredients together before adding to the fluffed cream cheese. Also I made my own graham cracker crusts and baked these in a muffin pan. They got RAVE reviews!!

    A vanilla wafer cookie can also be used as the crust. How easy is that?

    Delicious and easy to make. I let my cream cheese set out to room temperature and added a little extra pumpkin spice. I also used a regular sized muffin/cupcake pan and made my own crust with graham cracker and butter.

    I reduced the recipe to 12 servings instead of 24 but they were quick easy and delicious! I will be making these again!

    Awesome recipe! Very easy and the mini pie crusts are super convenient. Made these for my hubby to take to work for this coworkers and he deemed them "too good" to take in - he wanted them for himself! If you want to make something unique for a potluck or bake sale this is an - Read more ...
