Not Your Average Echo: Cherry Cheese Cupcakes

Cherry Cheese Cupcakes

I love cheesecake! I grew up with my mom always making these cute little cheesecakes. And they freeze well too so you can pop some out of the freezer whenever you feel like having a sweet treat. These are my absolute favorite cheesecake and are perfect for a party or special occasion.

You'll need:

3 (8oz) pkg cream cheese
1 cup sugar
5 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract

Topping:
1 (8oz) container sour cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

2 can cherry pie filling

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Beat cream cheese until soft. Add sugar and mix well. Add eggs and vanilla. Beat 3 minutes until frothy. Fill cupcake liners 3/4 full. Bake 40 minutes.

Mix together sour cream, sugar and vanilla. Remove cupcakes from oven. Center of cupcakes will drop. Top with a spoonful of sour cream (spread over top. see picture) and a spoonful of pie filling. Return to oven for 5 minutes. Serve chilled.

Hello, everybody. Thanks for taking the time to read my blog. I love to cook and do a lot of diy and craft projects and people always see my pictures on my Instagram and ask me for the recipes or how I made something so I thought it'd be good to post them all on here so everyone can see them. I hope my ideas can inspre you.

I try to cook more on the healthy side because I cook meals for my dad who has diabetes and he needs to eat healthy and for myself because I want to live a healthy life and it doesn't happen with fast food and fried foods all the time. I'd take a home cooked meal over eating out, any night of the week.

I also put a lot of thought and love into the projects I create because people like getting things that were specifically made for them and they know actualy thought went into it, rather than something just picked off a shelf at the store.
