Easy Cheesecake Cupcakes

Though I didn't make this delectable and ridiculously easy cupcakes this evening (I had only one package of cream cheese), I promised an eager baker I would post this recipe for future reference. So here it is, easily the simplest cupcake recipe ever.


Cheesecake Cupcakes

2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
box of 'Nilla wafers

Preheat the oven to 350. Cream the cheese and sugar together in a medium bowl, adding the eggs one at a time and beating until smooth. Line a muffin tin with paper cupcake cups and place a wafer in the bottom of each cup. Fill the cups 1/2-3/4 full with cheesecake mixture and bake for 15-20 minutes. Let cool for a half an hour or until cheesecake sets.

Topping ideas:
fruit pie filling
flaked pecans
chocolate curls/chocolate chips
coconut
drizzled caramel
drunken raspberries (raspberries soaked in Bailey's)
