| Light & Fluffy Autumn Custard Cakes |
24 foil cupcake liners
4 packages (32 ounces) regular cream cheese (at room temperature)
4 large eggs (at room temperature)
1 cup Lakanto Classic granulated sweetener (or granulated sweetener of choice)
1 cup organic pumpkin puree
6 teaspoons (2 tablespoons) pumpkin pie spice**
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Maple Cream Ingredients:
1 cup heavy whipped cream
1 envelope of Dr. Oetker's "Whip It"***
2 tablespoons Lakanto Powdered sweetener (or powdered sweetener of choice)
1 teaspoon maple extract
nutmeg (optional)
Method:
Preheat oven to 350*. Line two muffin pans with the foil cupcake liners. Set aside.
Place the cream cheese and eggs in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until they are well blended, smooth and creamy. Sift the granulated sweetener over the cream cheese mixture. Add the pumpkin, spice and vanilla. Beat just until well mixed and smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the 24 muffin liners.
Bake for 10 minutes. Rotate the pan and continue baking for another 5 to 10 minutes, or just until slightly jiggly in the center. Cool completely in the pans and then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for 2 hours or overnight.
In a chilled bowl, with chilled beaters, beat together the cream, Whip It, powdered sweetener and maple extract. Beat until peaks form, and remain, as the beaters are lifted out of the cream. Spoon or pipe on top of the chilled cheesecakes. If desired, garnish with a sprinkle of nutmeg. Makes 24 mini cheesecakes. Store in an airtight container, in the refrigerator.

***"Whip It" may be purchased at World Market, on line, or at German or international food stores. It stabilizes the whipped cream and helps it hold it's shape.
