 24 vanilla cookies (Nilla)
 3 blocks of 8 oz (250 g) cream cheese at room temperature
 1 cup (200 g) sugar
 4 eggs
 1 tsp lemon zest
 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
 Strawberry, raspberry or cherry jam or sauce
 Sour cream

Set the oven rack in the center of the oven.Preheat the oven to 350 °F(180 ° C ). Line 24 standard-size muffin cups with paper cups. Place a cookie flat side down in the bottom of each cup.

2

I use the food processor to blend the cheese mix, but you can use the device you want.
Beat cheese and sugar until well blended. Add the eggs one at a time and beat just enough to combine after each addition. Stir in the lemon juice and zest.J

3

Pour the cheese mixture into a large measuring cup as this will be easier to fill the molds. Fill each mold 3/4 full and bake 12 cupcakes at a time for 18 to 20 minutes until the center is set.

Cool at room temperature then refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.

Top each cake with 1 tablespoon jam or fruit sauce just before serving. Put a bowl of sour cream on the table so each guest will garnish his cake as desired.
Cakes will keep for a week in the refrigerator and can be frozen without filling.
