How to make
Oven - 320°F (160°C);
Muffin tin 12 pcs. and baking paper cups.
The biscuits are grinded in a blender until a flour-like mixture is obtained. Remove them from the blender and pour the mixture in a bowl and add the melted butter, mix very well with a spatula, until the mixture becomes sand-like. Place the baking paper cups in the muffin molds and evenly distribute the biscuit mixture with a teaspoon. Press down the biscuit mixture well to the bottom of the baking paper cups. Set them aside.
Beat the cottage cheese with a mixer, along with the sugar until a creamy mixture is obtained, if necessary, it can be blended with a blender. Add the eggs, blend again until smooth, add the vanilla extract, lemon juice and an level tablespoon of flour. Blend until a smooth cream is obtained - about 5-7 minutes, finally add the sour cream and beat again until a smooth cream is obtained.
Fill 2/3 of the molds with the mixture on top of the biscuits.
Bake in a preheated oven at 320°F (160°C) for 15 minutes.
In my case, they took exactly 15 minutes to bake. Don't be fooled that they may remain undercooked, on the contrary, the time is accurate, but it still depends on the oven. During the baking time, they should be monitored and if you notice, shortly after 15 minutes, small cracks in the cupcakes, immediately remove them.
Leave them to cool in the molds. Once they have cooled down well, very carefully remove the baking paper cups and arrange them on a platter. Place a teaspoon of jam of your choice on top, mine is homemade wild strawberry jam.
To decorate them, whip the cream until stiff. Place it in a piping bag with a star-shaped nozzle and decorate with the cream. You can do that to your liking.
When serving, add a small mint leaf.
The little cheesecakes are ready.
The mold I use for muffins is not the biggest, it is medium in size, so I use baking paper cups of the same shape, and maybe that's why I had some egg-cream mixture left over, which I poured into a bowl for crème-caramel and baked. The only thing is that I couldn't get the cottage cheese cream out well, but it tastes perfect. This is just a tip.
