Why do I love mini food so much? Is it because I'm mini? At 5'0, I rarely get to look others in the eye. Is it because I have mini kids? Or maybe mini food makes me feel better about eating ten? Regardless of what it is, the smaller food is, the happier it makes me.
This idea came after making those mini quiches. The little pie crusts were so easy to make that the possibilities became endless. Then I discovered that you can buy premade cheesecake filling that requires no baking.
That combined with a layer of lemon curd, and a bright raspberry, and you have one (or ten) tasty little bite!
Semi-Homemade Raspberry-Lemon Cheesecake Bite
A Blog About Food
Ingredients (Makes 48)
2 refrigerated rolled pie crusts
1 tub cheese cake filling
1 jar lemon curd
1 container of raspberries, washed (just about any berry would work)
Directions
Preheat oven to temperature on pie crust box. Unroll pie crust, flour on either size and roll out to almost twice it's size. Use a round glass or biscuit cutter to cut out circles to fit a greased mini muffin pan. Bake according to directions. (You'll do this twice). Allow to cool.
Fill each pie crust with cheesecake filling, a layer of lemon curd and top with one berry.

Simple and delicious...a winning combination. And remember, good things come in small packages.
adorable you need to write a mini cookbook
These look delicious and they are perfect shower fare. I love petite cakes

How cute are those? They look tasty too.
I'll have to give this a try next time I need a dessert in a hurry.

Hey ready made cheesecake, im interested in that! Minis are cool especially with my kids cause theyre mini too!
Thanks...

Looks delicious!
So easy and so delicious!! And I'm convinced that mini things just taste better!
What a lovely treat ~ My only problem, I would eat one to mini :D.
Mini is ALWAYS better. Always. I think the cuteness factor makes it taste better...or something. These look delicious! (Plus since they're mini...I can eat two, right? And two pieces of cheesecake is ALWAYS better than one!)
Those look so good! I am 5.2", so I hear you on being short!
Hope you have a great weekend! :D
I think everyone likes their own little portions. Or perhaps it seems as though we're eating less? Who know? I like minis too, Teresa.
These little bites are perfect summertime desserts!
Excellent idea! One or ten...I think I want ten bites HA!
That is a great idea, I will steal it for one of my summer parties!
These are delightful!! Mini bites means more bites for me! I also love how minimalistic and simple they are.
I'm always in the look for bite-size desserts. That's a terrific dessert for my next dinner party. Thanks for sharing.
These are too cute!! I love min food. Lemon curd and raspberries are my favorite combo for spring!
How adorable are these? I think I could very easily eat the entire plate myself. Is that wrong?
How cute are those tarts?! I am a lemon freak, so I would love this sweet treat!
