"I like this recipe because you do individual servings, it's easy, you do it in the microwave, you can substitute other fruits, and it tastes great. I use 1 cup sized ramekins. You can easily cut this in half or expand it by 50 or 100 %."

Original is 4 servings

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Melt butter and stir in vanilla wafer crumbs

Step 2

Spoon into ramekins and lightly tamp down to form a crust. If you pack it down hard it will cook up like concrete.

Step 3

Remove seeds from papaya. Scoop the flesh into a blender and blend until smooth.

Step 4

In large bowl microwave cream cheese for 1 to 2 minutes just to soften it

Step 5

With mixer at low speed, beat cream cheese, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and 1/2 cup papaya puree until smooth and well blended

Step 6

Microwave on high 4 to 6 minutes, until very hot, beating 3 times during cooking.

Step 7

Remove from microwave and beat one last time until smooth. [ lick beaters and put in sink ]

Step 8

Spoon mixture into ramekins. Arrange in an evenly spaced circle in microwave and cook 3 to 4 minutes, until almost set, rearranging them twice.

Step 9

Remove from microwave and let them stand for 15 minutes.

Step 10

Put remaining papaya puree in a small bowl and stir in icing sugar to taste and then cover it.

Step 11

Refrigerate cheesecakes and puree until well chilled - several hours.

Step 12

To serve, take cheesecakes out of fridge about an hour ahead, and just before serving top with the remaining papaya puree.
