These individual cheesecakes are fruity and creamy, and they are particularly delicious when fresh berries are in season. Since they need to refrigerate overnight, they are a wonderful make-ahead dessert option for parties. Our recipe incorporates Neufchâtel cheese (also labeled as 1/3-less-fat cream cheese), a soft French cheese that is commonly used as a lower fat alternative to full-fat cream cheese, to create a rich filling. Use any flavor jam and fruit that you like. Blueberries, strawberries, mixed berries, and mango all would make a great cheesecake. A little bit of the raspberry mixture on top is a pretty finish. Add a dollop of whipped cream to each mini cheesecake, if you like.
