When I was a kid, my mom always made German Cheesecake for my Birthdays. This is a homage to that cake however in Hors d'oevre sized bite version. Those mini cheese cakes are great to prepare with young children and very popular at Birthday Parties.
Preheat the oven: 160 Degree or 320 Fahrenheit
For the Filling:
Combine the Mascarpone (Quark or Cream Cheese) with the Eggs, Sugar, Vanilla Extract and Lemon Juice in a Bowl and Mix until smooth. Set aside
For the Bottom:
Place your Graham Crackers in a Zip-lock or plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin until only Crums are left (Great activity for Kids!). Melt the Butter and combine the crums, melted butter and sugar in a mixing bowl. Stir until combined - still crumbly but not soggy.
Line a mini muffin tins with muffin liners and place a heaping teaspoon full of crums into the liners. With a spoon, or coin-sized tool (I use old film boxes), flatten out the crum base. Pour your cream cheese filling with a tablespoon onto the flattened base. Fill up to the rhim (the batter won't rise)
Bake in oven for 15-20 minutes or until air bubbles show on the surface. No browning will show!
If you have a very sweet tooth, ad more sugar!
