Ingredients

For The Crust

For The Cheesecake

Instructions

  • Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter.
  • Take a mini cheesecake pan and fill each compartment equally with the graham cracker mixture. Pack the graham crackers until firm with the bottom of a shot glass or other circular object. Set aside.
  • Mix cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with a stand or hand mixer.
  • In a separate bowl, whip heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
  • Fold whipped cream into cheesecake mixture.
  • Separate cheesecake equally into four bowls. Add food coloring to each until you have the desired colors.
  • Layer colored cheesecake into cheesecake pan, one color at a time. If cheesecake is too thick to layer, you can stir it a little to soften it.
  • Place cheesecake pan in the freezer for about 1/2 an hour. This makes it easier to add the eyes.
  • Use black decorating gel to add the eyes. You can squeeze the gel straight from the tube but I prefer thinner lines. To do this, I squeezed some of the gel into a plastic sandwich bag and cut a very small piece off the corner. You may want to practice first to see how you like it.
  • Place a Bugle in the center of each cheesecake.
  • Add 6-8 candy flowers, starting from around the bugle and cascading down the side of the mini cheesecake. Enjoy!
