Walnut & Pumpkin mini cheesecakes

Ingredients

Cheesecake crust
70 g graham crackers,
60 g grounded walnuts
2 tbsp melted butter (30 g),
1/4 tsp cinnamon,
1 tbsp honey.
Cheesecake
250 g quark cheese (can be substituted with cream cheese),
190 g sour cream,
2 eggs,
100 g white chocolate,
3/4 cup pumpkin pure,
3/4 cup powder sugar,
1 1/2 tbsp all purpose flour,
1 tsp pumpkin spice mix.
Nut filling
1,5 tbsp melted butter,
1,5 tbsp ground walnuts,
3 tsp powdered sugar,
1/4 tsp cinnamon.

Preparation

1
Preheat the oven to 300 F.
2
Blend the crackers to make cracker crumbs and mix with the rest of the ingredients.
3
Divide the mixture evenly among the cupcake liners and press it down with the back of a spoon or 1/4 measuring cup.
4
Melt chocolate in a microwave or double boiler and bring to room temperature.
5
Mix the rest of the cheesecake ingredients until smooth, with the mixer on medium low, about 1-2 minutes. You can also use a regular spoon or a whisk. But remember not to over mix the batter or your cheesecakes will raise and fall in the middle.
6
Divide mixture evenly between cupcake liners over crust layer.
7
Whisk all the ingredients for the nut filling and dollop about 5 small circles of nut filling over each cheesecake. Using a toothpick, swirl nut filling with cheesecake mixture to create a marbled design.
8
Bake in preheated oven 30 minutes.
9
Let cool in open oven and after completely cool transfer to a refrigerator for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.
