These taste so good to be so easy! It took a bit of doing to get them baked as I was quite confused about the size. I started with mini-muffin pans and liners but the vanilla wafers would not fit in them. I had some little amaretti cookies that did fit so they became my crust. With a scant 1 tablespoon of filling, they were filled to overflowing . Then I read step 7 -whoops! I'm guessing that for the minis, I should have used only 1 1/2 tsp. of filling. So I mixed up some more filling & used the vanilla wafers in standard cupcake liners. Everything fit. The bake time was perfect for both sizes, surprisingly. They rose and fell some upon cooling like a cheesecake. I topped some with cherry pie filling as suggested. The flavors were scrumptious together. Now that I've got the sizes and amounts figured out, ;-) I will make these often as a quick dessert or treat. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

Color Guard Mom, these are so yummy ! I actually made these and took to a tailgate party. Once there I topped them with blueberry filling and they were gone in no time. These have already been requested again but in a larger quantity LOL. Wish I had a pic, but I had 18 people in my group and they were taking as I was topping ! These were made for PAC fall 2007.
