Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl, combine crumbs and butter. Press gently into the bottom of 12 paper-lined muffin cups. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, vanilla, lemon juice, sugar and egg; beat until smooth. Spoon into crusts. Bake at 375 for 12-15 minutes or until set. Cool completely.

Drain cherries, reserving 1/2 cup juice in a saucepan; discard remaining juice. To juice, and cherries, sugar, cornstarch. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally; boil for 1 minute. Cool; spoon over cheesecake. Chill for 2 hours.
