Marvelous Mini Cheesecakes

~ Emma ~
I graduated from the fifth grade last Thursday. School’s out for the whole summer and I hope to get a lot of cooking time in. I’m hoping to make a German Chocolate Cake for Papa (Patty can help), Cream Puffs with Katy and a Black Forest Cake with Mary.
I found this recipe in a real cool recipe book with the BEST recipes. It’s called “The Treasures of Christmas” but I’m using summer ingredients to dress them up. You may be surprised to hear that I made these all by myself – mom (Wanda) just showed me two little tips.


I took the pictures too – except for the ones of myself – silly!

I used fresh fruits, strawberries, blueberries and blackberries.

I was lucky enough to taste them and they are as yummy as they look!!
Great job Emma!!
I’m so impressed Emma!
Oh boy, those look good! I can hardly wait for you to get here so you can make some for us!!!
Hi Emma,

Hey Lisa – I forwarded your message on to Emma – she thinks you should make them because they are soooo good. Hope you did and enjoyed them!
They look so delicious and sound so easy to make, don’t know why I haven’t done it before. My daughter will have a ball helping me. She likes to pretend she’s a chef.
Did you put them in cupcake paper cases????
