seconds to mix all ingredients until smooth.
  • Spoon this filling mixture into the small
    baked pastry shells, approximately 1 tablespoon or less per shell.
  • Garnish with fresh
    berries such as blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries. Some larger fruits, such as strawberries
    or kiwi, can be sliced into smaller pieces.
  • Refrigerate 1 hour, until mixture
    thickens.
  • This recipe makes approximately 3 cups of filling.
  • OPTIONS:
    • If a
      lighter flavored cheesecake is desired, eliminate the lemon juice and replace the sweetened
      condensed milk with 8 ounces of whipped topping.
    • Other fillings can be substituted for the
      cheesecake filling, such as frozen yogurt, ice cream, or sorbet. If frozen fillings are to be
      served, fill the pastry shells with the filling desired and freeze until ready to serve. Garnish
      with fruit just before serving.
