Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners or lightly grease the pan if not using liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with the sugar until smooth and creamy, using an electric mixer or whisk.
- Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.
- Pour in the heavy whipping cream, Baileys Irish Cream (if using), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Continue to mix until the batter is well combined and smooth.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the tops are deeply golden brown and the centers are slightly jiggly. The cheesecakes will puff up during baking and then settle down as they cool.
- Remove the cheesecakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the cheesecakes to a wire rack to cool completely. They can be served slightly warm or chilled.
- Optional: Before serving, lightly dust the tops with powdered sugar or garnish with a dollop of whipped cream.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Tips:
- Ensure that all your ingredients are at room temperature to achieve a smooth and creamy batter.
- For the best results, use high-quality cream cheese and Baileys. The quality of these ingredients will significantly affect the final taste.
- Line your baking tin with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make it easier to remove the cheesecakes once they are baked.
- Avoid over-beating the batter to prevent incorporating too much air, which can cause cracks on the surface of your cheesecakes.
- Allow the cheesecakes to cool gradually in the oven with the door slightly ajar to avoid sudden temperature changes, which can cause sinking or cracking.
Enjoy your Mini Baileys Basque Cheesecakes! With their rich, creamy texture and decadent flavor, these cheesecakes are the perfect conclusion to any meal or a luxurious treat to enjoy anytime. Don't forget to share with friends and family—if you can bear to part with them! Happy baking!
