Description
Can’t decide between rich and creamy cheesecake or tender red velvet cake with its hint of vanilla and cocoa? With this cupcake-sized recipe you get to enjoy both! The layered dessert makes an impressive statement for Valentine’s Day or any special occasion, but it’s easy to pull off. (The hardest part is waiting 4 hours for it to chill.) Just bake mini layers of red velvet cake, then top them with a no-bake cheesecake filling. At serving time, add your favorite store-bought chocolate sauce and fresh raspberries. The recipe, which makes 12 mini cheesecakes, is a Yummly original created by Annalise Sandberg.
