Decant Cheesecakes!

Okay Linda, I found the step stool, climbed up it, and onto the counter, geesh, it used to be easier, hmmmmmmmmf, dusted off the one particular cookbook the recipe comes from.............

The Treasury of CREATIVE COOKING
(**Even has gold leaf on the edges of every page*)

1/4 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs
2 tablespoons whipping cream

You can cheat a bit, if you don't want to go to
all the fuss of making those chocolate and caramel toppings *although they are scrumptous*,
You can go to the section in your grocery store that has the banana split supplies and use those!!
Caramel, Chocolate, Strawberries, even Pineapple too if you like that stuff!!!
