Notes
- Store individual cheesecake cups in the fridge for up to 5 days. Freeze for up to 2 months, thaw in the fridge before serving. Leftovers (with toppings) can be frozen. These freeze beautifully.
- Nutrition information is based on 16 servings, this will vary depending on your cup/container size.
- The cheesecake will set up a bit thicker and the cookie will soften as it chills. Overnight is best. If you don't have much time to chill, crush the cookie before adding it to the cups. You can use any kind of cookie in the bottom of the cup.
