Tart cherries and sweet creamy white chocolate combine to bring a new year-round favorite. A cheeseball of course, but also a fun and versatile quick cheesecake recipe as well.

Cherry Cheesecake Bites
INGREDIENTS:
Wind & Willow White Chocolate Cherry Cheeseball Mix
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
4 T. butter, softened
Tube of refrigerated sugar cookie dough

DIRECTIONS:
Mix cheeseball mix into softened cream cheese and butter; set aside. Preheat oven to 350. Spray mini muffin pan with oil. Slice cookie dough into ¼” slices. Press each slice into a mini muffin cup, forming a little cup. Bake 10 minutes or until golden. Dough will puff up and fill muffin cups, so press baked dough down and against sides with the handle of a wooden spoon or similar utensil. Cool thoroughly. Fill each cookie cup with approximately 1 T. cheeseball mixture. Sprinkle each cheesecake bite with topping mix. Chill well.
Makes approximately 18 mini cups.
