candy corn cheesecake

by admin | Sep 15, 2017 | Dessert, Food | 20 comments

Mmmm. Today’s dessert is perfect for fall and Halloween. Are you a candy corn fan? We took a poll on Facebook once, most didn’t like it. That’s okay!-this yummy treat is all cheesecake with the pretty fall colors of candy corn, the best of both worlds, right? We love this easy candy corn cheesecake recipe and we love to put it in mason jars for quick fall neighbor gifts or to give to the kids as a Halloween snack! How cute would these be in mini jars for their annual Halloween school party treat or fall class party dessert idea?

Make yours now, mm!

Ingredients:

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 c melted butter
3 tbl sugar
8 oz whipped cream, softened
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/3 c sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1 c sour cream
candy corn candies
1/2 pint size mason jars

Split cheesecake topping into two bowls: add orange food coloring in one, yellow in the other.

Whaaaat???? Not like candy corn???? What’s WRONG with people? LOL I must be in the minority. I love them! So I guess I would love these little mini cheesecakes. They certainly are pretty to look at. I’m sure they would meet my sweet tooth qualifications!
