2/3 c nestle's semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
1 can(s) fruit pie filling (strawberry or raspberry)
18 nilla wafer cookies

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  • 2. Line cupcake tins with cupcake papers and place one Nilla wafer cookie in each.
  • 3. Combine in large bowl cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract and eggs. Mix with hand mixer on high until well blended.

  • 7. Take cheesecakes out of oven and let cool for 10-15 mins.
  • 8. Top each with a dollop of pie filling. (Strawberry and raspberry are my favs, but blueberry and cherry are also good. I've even used mandarin orange slices!)
