Ingredients

    3/4 c. butter, just melted so that it's still creamy
    8 dozen Nilla Wafers, one for each cheesecake aprox. 1 box
    4 8-oz pkg. Philadelphia cream cheese, softened
    1 1/4 c. granulated sugar
    1/4 c. all-purpose flour
    1 Tbsp real vanilla
    1/2 c. sour cream
    Optional: Use fresh berries mixed with sugar or pie filling for a garnish

Directions

1. Beat sugar and cream cheese together on high speed for five minutes. Add flour and beat for an additional three minutes. In a separate bowl combine eggs and vanilla. Add the eggs and vanilla to batter and mix on low speed until smooth. Add sour cream and stir until just combined.

2. Place Nilla wafers in a plastic bag and crush until crumbs are fine. Using a rolling pin works well. Mix crumbs with butter and spoon into lined muffin tins. Press dough into the bottom of the muffin cups. Use your fingers or the bottom of a shot glass.

3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spoon cheesecake batter into each muffin cup until almost full. Bake cheesecakes for 10-15 min. Let cheesecakes cool and then chill them until ready to serve.
