Tips and Tricks
Note:Look for the refrigerated cheesecake in the bakery section of your supermarket. If you can instead only find slices of cheesecake, you will need to purchase either 1 large or 2 small slices of cheesecake to get the approximately 3/4 cup cheesecake needed to prepare this recipe. When preparing this recipe, use both the cheesecake crust and filling.
Note:These fun treats can be refrigerated up to 24 hours before serving.
Substitute :Substitute 3/4 cup refrigerated ready-to-eat cheesecake filling for the cheesecake half. Look for this cheesecake filling in a tub next to the other cream cheese products in the dairy section of your supermarket.
