This recipe project has been good because I've rediscovered some recipes I had completely forgotten about, like this one. It's been a while since I've had these yummy bites, but I still remember how much I loved them! The recipe is from my friend, Christy, back in our Columbus days. :)
12 vanilla wafers12 oz. cream cheese, softened
¼ c. sugar
½ tsp. almond extract
2 eggs
¼ c. chopped toasted almonds
Use paper baking cups. Place one wafer, flat side down, in each cup. Set aside. Beat cream cheese and sugar until fluffy. Add almond extract. Beat in eggs one at a time. Fill cups ¾ full. Sprinkle with almonds. Bake at 350° for about 20 minutes or until centers are firm. Cool 15 minutes. Cover, refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve w/ fruit.
Alternative recipe: omit almond extract. Stir in ½ tsp. vanilla. Top filling in each one with a peanut butter cup. Bake 15 minutes.
