Mini Gingerbread Cheesecakes

These mini gingerbread cheesecakes are the perfect holiday party dessert. Festive & spiced, they are sure to be a party favourite!

Gingerbread is one of my most favourite flavours of the holiday season and these mini gingerbread cheesecakes are one of my favourites.

Rich and creamy with all that good gingerbread flavour.

So tasty, and such a welcome addition to any holiday dessert table!

To decorate just add a dollop of whip cream and a gingerbread man. You can use my favourite gingerbread cookie recipe or use store bought gingerbread men.
