Blueberry Swirl Cheesecakes - eRecipe Q - BarbaraS - 07-27-2013
Hey All,
I got this week's eRecipe from C@H. It was for these mini cheesecakes with a blueberry topping that look great. You use a muffin tin.
Well, I just made these and I'm wondering if anyone else has made these or any other kind of mini cheesecakes in a muffin tin. There was too much cheesecake batter for the muffin size, so I think I maybe doing these in ramekins next time.
Any thoughts?
Barbara

I have not made this recipe, but I made hundreds of mini- cheesecakes, tarts, etc., when catering. You just never know when a recipe is going to be the amount stated.
As Denise is finding out with her canning - so many recipe quantities are arbitrary.
Hope you made good use of the extra.

Okay Batman! Riddle me this: How the heck am I going to get those suckers out of the muffin tins when I don't have a muffin tin with removable bottoms?

I'm afraid you'll just have to get out a spoon and eat them all before anyone finds out.

No no no... Hubby already knows I made them. I'm afraid they won't come out so nice and I'll end up with mini blueberry cheesecakes with a cobbler-style twist.
Grrr...

I'm not sure what kind of a mess you have, Barbara. Did it run over the tops of the tins where you can't run a thin knife around the edge to loosen??
What did the directions say to bake them in and how??
And, I really want to know what Blane deleted.......

Probably too late now, but maybe dipping the bottom of the pan in hottish water, or placing in a hot oven for a few minutes, or on a warm grill? I always use foil cupcake liners for individual cheesecakes. Does take away from the look you probably want to achieve but they come out of the pan!

Frist of all, the muffin tin I have is one of those cheap-o Ecko tins - the kind that gets bundled with other baking things. Honestly, I didn't even think I had a muffin tin since I don't make muffins or cupcakes.
@Jean - I used a knife and got them out intact. Did a little damage to the "non-stick" coating of the tin. I might just look for mini spring form pans.
@pj - I thought about whether or not I should use a cupcake liner because the recipe just didn't explain it well. I sprayed the cups with Pam and waited until I had it all ready to go to do the crust so it wouldn't absorb the Pam.
For this recipe there was 4 teaspoons - the cutlery kind - too much batter. Maybe they used a larger sized muffin tin?

I agree - 4 tsps = 1 Tablespoon + 1 tsp. is too much for those mini pans.
