I am sure you have heard the rumor by now that Mardi of Eat. Live. Travel. Write is hosting this round of Hay Hay it’s Donna Day. I was really excited that she said she had the time as I had to beg her to get her entry in last month – sorry about that “gentle” nudge!
Mardi decided to sweeten up HHDD this month with Blackberry Cheesecake Pots. I made this recipe last Saturday – it did not last long enough to photograph it. So, I made it again on Sunday, snap some pictures and we shoveled it into our big mouths! Easy. Delicious. Basically cheesecake filling in a cup. This is one of those fall-on recipes to have when you need a quick dessert for guests. It has cream cheese, sugar, a little cream, and fruit. Simple, right! I did add a little more cream cheese than the recipe called for as well I cut the sugar down a bit and added vanilla bean paste. Really lovely! Thank you Mardi for hosting this month’s HHDD and for picking a winning recipe!

I wish I could have found blackberries but did not, so in the exhaustion of the other night, finished my RASPBERRY cheesecake ones and managed to call them STRAWBERRY in my entry; so you might eventually see my STRASBERRY recipe? This was so easy and so good...but seriously...did you get four of them? I got two and had no problem eating one myself, nope, I did not!

My goodness those blackberry cheesecake pots look to die for! I can understand why you would have had to have made them twice in one weekend.

Made this, layered with more fresh berries & real whipped cream in clear glasses and had teenage boys ask me for the recipe. Seriously. Thank you.

Oh that looks so good. Blackberry picking is just a week or so away, so I'm bookmarking this one for sure!
