Mini White Chocolate Tuxedo Cheesecakes –No bake cheesecake dressed up in a chocolate tux and glamed up with some Godiva White Chocolate liqueur for your Academy Award party this weekend.
I love it when an idea materializes the way I envision it. Trust me, my kitchen hands have experienced many failings from concept to reality. This was a good one for me though, so I can’t wait to debut this at my Academy Award get together and then repeat it for my girlfriend’s dessert bar at her wedding in May.
So what can make a fast and easy dessert better? A no-fuss pretty dessert that is less than 3o minutes in prep time.
To make these mini sizes you will need Chicago Metallic’s Mini Cheesecake pan. If you don’t have this pan, small cake rings will work just as well.
What to do if you are without both? Here’s a DIY I read on another site (sorry, can’t remember who to credit for this one. If someone does, please let me know.). Take some empty soda cans or Redbull and Starbucks Espresso Shot cans for a smaller diameter, cut the ends off with a mini saw or serrated knife and trim to desired height and you are good to go. Although this recipe won’t go in the oven, the aluminum cans work just fine for recipes that do. Small word of caution: The edges maybe a bit sharp, so use with care.
A few notes:
- Omit the white chocolate liqueur for a non-alcoholic version.
- If you don’t like cheesecake, use a cake recipe instead (although your prep time will increase considerably). Continue reading White Chocolate Tuxedo Cheesecake
