%20%40The%20Life%20and%20Loves%20of%20Grumpy%27s%20Honeybunch "Pin It")
I haven't made a dessert in quite some time now. Grumpy has been doing fairly well sticking to the The Low-Carb diet he needs to stick to and I've been following suit. It hasn't been all that hard and I really haven't been craving sweets....much.
I came across some cheesecake cups in a Woman's World Magazine, but they called for a crust and they were no-bake. I really love cheesecake but I don't care for the crust and I would rather have mine baked. But I took that idea and decided to make it a better cheesecake (in my opinion) and bake mini cheesecake cups. I didn't want a lot around the house so I made a small batch of 6 cups. These fit the bill, killed my craving for a baked cheesecake, and didn't kill Grumpy's low carb diet!

What a scrumptious photo!! I love individual cheesecakes (to heck with portion control haha) I think they taste better for some reason.

I just had to pop in here and see these! What a stunning little dessert. I like the fact that it is just cheesecake and berries as well as it forming a cup when baked. You did a great job on these gems-yum!
