Time for The Tips!
- Pick your filling: Using cherry pie filling, blueberry pie filling, raspberry jam, or any other favorite filling can add a burst of flavor to your cheesecake cupcakes. It’s a versatile way to customize your cupcakes to suit different preferences.
- You can freeze them: Freezing the cheesecake cupcakes is a convenient option for preparing them in advance. Just be sure to leave out the filling until you’re ready to serve them. Storing them in an airtight container helps maintain their freshness.
- Let them cool: Allowing the cupcakes to cool properly before consuming them ensures that they are set properly and have the right texture. Cooling them in the fridge for at least an hour helps them firm up and enhances the taste.
- They’re even better the second day: Like many desserts, cheesecake cupcakes often taste better the day after they’re made. This is because the flavors have time to meld together and develop further. Making them a day ahead of when you plan to serve them can result in a more flavorful and satisfying treat for your guests.
