Cherry Mini Cheesecakes
Description
The baking is simple and quick. In summer, you can make these cheesecakes with fresh berries—just add cherry pieces to the batter. Additionally, in winter you can add dried cherries, cranberries, or raisins to the batter, but then the texture might not turn out as tender. That's why I prefer to decorate the dessert on top—this way the wonderful tenderness of the base remains intact, and the berries keep their shape. Serve with tea or coffee.
