As promised, I’m sharing the Blueberry Mini Cheesecake with you today. It’s mini cheesecakes made with Blueberry Syrup and fresh blueberries.
I would have to say that blueberries are my favorite berries. I know that everyone loves strawberries. I like them as well, but I ate way too much of them when I was a kid. My grandparents used to grow a lot of their own veggies and berries and I was in charge of strawberries, peas and tulips. It was so much fun for a kid but it was also hard work. Well, no store-bought strawberry will compare to home grown, so I’m picky.
I also remember going blueberry picking but we didn’t do it often. So, I haven’t gotten spoiled with blueberries like I did with strawberries. The little man also loves blueberries….actually, he stole some while I was taking cheesecake pictures.
He is so cute, I just can’t stand it! He definitely approved of the blueberries and the cheesecake!
