Mini Chocolate Cheesecake Cupcakes

Cheesecake, i tasted this high caloric cake for the first time when i landed Paris, before that i never heard about cheesecakes. My younger one just love cheesecakes and he can have it even everyday for his dessert, but obviously am limiting the consommation of this cheese cream stuffed cakes. For our this month's Home Baker's Challenge, a monthly baking event where we bake varieties of baked goodies, the host of this month is Siri of The Brave Cook suggested 5 different baked goodies, one among her choice is cheesecake cupcakes with berries, since berries are showing their heads rarely in my farmer's market i opted chocolates for making these beauties.

This cheesecake goes for egg and for baking, its not like the no bake cheesecake which can be prepared very quickly too, if you want to make no bake cheesecake you can check my Mango Cheesecake With Agar agar. Am running blogging marathon this week and my theme of this week is chocolates, since this super delicious chocolate cheesecake cupcakes suits prefectly for the theme, am posting these cuties today.Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#38 .
