• Total Time: 2 hours and 20 minutes
• Yield: 12

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

1/2 box (5.5 oz) vanilla wafers

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

0.25 oz packet unflavored gelatin

2 tablespoons cold water

1 cup heavy cream

Food coloring

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

1. Prepare the silicone muffin pan on a baking sheet to help keep it solid in place.
2. Add the vanilla wafers to a food processor and crush until they’re a crumb-like texture. Add the melted butter and mix.
3. Divide the crumb mixture between the muffin tin cavities and gently press down with a spoon to form the crust.
4. Beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy.
5. Add the gelatin and cold water to a microwave safe bowl and heat for 10 seconds or so until you have a clear liquid. Give it a good stir, then set aside.
6. Slowly add the heavy cream to the cream cheese mixture, and beat it in on low speed.
7. Add the warm gelatin mixture and stir until well combined.
8. Divide the mixture between 3 bowls and add 1 drop each of red and blue to one bowl, 1 drop of yellow to another Bowl, and 1 drop of pink to another bowl.  Stir until solid colors have formed. Add each color to a separate piping bag.
9. Alternate piping colored mixture between the molds.
10. Lay a parchment sheet on top of the muffin tin, and gently press it down on the batter to bring the colors together and flatten the cheesecake bites.
11. Put the muffin tin (on the baking sheet) in the freezer for 2 hours to allow the cheesecakes to set.
12. Unmold, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
13. Top with whipped topping or make whipped cream with your leftover whipping cream before serving.
