Ingredients

  • 16 butter or shortbread cookies I used Pepperidge Farm Chessmen Cookies
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 4 oz white chocolate melted
  • 16 oz cream cheese softened
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line a muffin tin with 12 cupcake liners.
  • Finely crush the cookies. Add the 1/8 teaspoon salt and melted butter to the crushed cookies in a bowl and mix together with a fork until completely combined.
  • Add about a tablespoon of the crust mixture to the bottom of each cupcake liner and lightly press down to form the crust.
  • With a hand or stand mixer, beat together the cream cheese, melted white chocolate, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla until smooth.
  • Add the eggs to the cheesecake batter and beat again until smooth.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners.
  • Bake the cheesecakes until the centers are puffed, 18 - 20 minutes.
  • Allow to cool in the pan completely and then refrigerate the cheesecakes (covered) until ready to serve.
