These adorable mini cheesecakes have completely won me over with their individual servings and speedy 35 minute bake time. There's something irresistible about creamy cheesecake swirled with rich dulce de leche, and honestly, making them in smaller portions means less fuss than a traditional full sized cake. Plus, eggs are packed with choline which supports brain health, so you can enjoy these treats knowing they've got some nutritional value. They're perfect for entertaining because they look fancy but come together in under an hour from start to finish.
