Mini Cheesecakes

I haven't been able to write in awhile! Nor have I been able to actually cook anything...so sad. :/

Nursing school is very difficult! More difficult than I thought it would be! I need to study a lot...but I don't! My laziness has finally taken its toll! I always feel as though I am behind and I barely passed my first nursing exam! I can't wait for winter break already!

I know, I watch wayyy too much TV! I just can't cut it down! :/

These cheesecakes were from the wedding I catered for in August. I kind of burned some of them because I was in such a hurry. The ones that weren't burnt tasted great though!

If it's your first time making cheesecake, make sure that your cream cheese is at room temperature to prevent clumps.
