Cheesecake Cups

These little confections are great one-per-afternoon snacks. They are dense and will give you a euphoric high on sweets but make you want to go work out after.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450 g) cream cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • ¾ cups (180 g) granulated sugar
  • Semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. 2
    Soften the cream cheese in the microwave in a bowl. Thirty seconds on a medium setting should be sufficient.
  3. 3
    Combine the cream cheese, eggs, and sugar.
  4. 4
    Line the pan with the papers.
  5. 5
    Put chocolate chips in the bottom of the cupcake papers, making less than a full layer; do not completely cover the bottom of the papers.
  6. 6
    Fill the cups with the cream cheese mixture, then place into the oven.
  7. 7
    Bake for about 15 minutes. The chocolate will melt and create a bottom to your cakes, but part of that chocolate will also bubble up through the cream cheese for an added effect.
  8. 8
    Remove and allow to cool for 20 minutes, until the chocolate hardens on the bottom and becomes crunchy.
