Tangy Granadilla Cheesecakes

These mini cheesecakes are so smooth and tangy, with the creaminess of a first-class cheesecake.

Granadilla (also known as passion fruit) cheesecakes are so easy to make and so quick to disappear once they’re put on the table – if they manage to make it that far from the fridge!

These mini cheesecakes are so smooth and tangy, with the creaminess of a first-class cheesecake, topped with fresh granadilla pulp for a zap of citrus to complement the richness of the cream cheese.

Make them once and you’ll never stop receiving compliments. No matter the weather, these always go down with a big smile and a full mouth.

Best of all, they’re made in individual portions so you don’t need to worry about slicing and plating. But that doesn’t mean your guests won’t be asking for seconds!
