Will you be celebrating Valentine’s Day this year? Whether I was headed to a movie with girlfriends or hanging out with my new beau, I always had plans. These days life is a little (read: a lot) less exciting on Valentine’s day. Children and a distinct lack of available babysitters make date nights a lot harder. But a mini cheesecake recipe will save any Valentine’s Day!

Don’t they always say that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach? Last year I made my husband some delicious Bacon Chocolates (seriously… sooo good!), but this year I’m baking up another one of my delicious mini cheesecake recipes!

There’s nothing better than a dessert in its own little container, is there? You can make this cheesecake in a pie dish, but I usually go for individual servings in mason jars.

I tried this recipe but it didn't set it is still runny. What size of can is the condensed milk? Is there something that I can do to fix it??

It's not the same texture as a baked cheesecake, it will always be a bit runny. But it tastes delicious!

Awesome recipe! I was just looking for ideas on what to make for my parent's wedding anniversary and this fits the bill perfectly. Keep up the great work:-)

It looks so lovely. Would the recipe work if you swapped out the peppermint extract for another flavor? My hubby isn't a fan of peppermint.

Would 4 oz Mason jars work for this recipe?
