No-Bake Cheesecake
Source: Sherry Yard's Desserts By The Yard
Makes 24 mini cheesecakes
12 vanilla wafer cookies
8 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
2 Tbsp sour cream
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
12 ripe strawberries, hulled, and halved or quartered
Pulse the cookies in a food processor until you have crumbs. Line the cups of two mini muffin pans with paper liners and spoon a layer of cookie crumbs into the bottom of each.
In a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese and sugar at medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. On low speed, beat in the sour cream and lemon juice until well combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Spoon or pipe the filling into the cups. Refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours, until set.
Before serving, top each cheesecake with a strawberry piece or two.
In the pan.

Adorable bite-sized treats!
Wow! I love how adorable these little cheesecake bites are--and how easy! I think I need to invest in this book!
Wow! Those look tasty.
(I still need to make the twix bars. Where does time go?)
Another recipe to try out of the book is the Campton Place muffins. They are very moist and delicious.
This is proof that desserts dont have to be complicated. this would make an awesome make-ahead for a party.
Yes! These are proof that you can make great desserts with little work.
Pinkstripes...thanks for the recommendation! I am loving that book and am eager to try all the recipes.
I have this book from the library at home right now! I love reading her stories too. They are just fantastic. This sounded too good to be true - I'll have to make it soon!
I found your recipe and made this with my 12 and 13 year old girls class at church a few years ago just before Thanksgiving. The girls LOVED it. Some even said they would make them again for their family for the holiday. I'm probably going to change the recipe up a tiny bit and make them for an upcoming dessert challenge. Thanks so much for sharing!
