So simple and quick to make you won't believe it. You also will not believe how good they taste. You might even feel guilty. If you weren't so busy eating them all.
I can hear the collective gasp of surprise now...
Kim made something Turtley...
Shocking right!
I think you'll forgive my obsession when you realize how flipping cute these are. They are also the easiest little cheesecakes in the world to make.
We'll call them "cheater cheesecakes". And we won't even feel a little bit bad about it.
Trust me, these will make those of you who like to spend hours prepping your desserts change your tune. They take about 3.57 minutes to make...
and about .357 seconds to inhale.
Life is good.
If you are a regular reader you probably know I've been wicked sick this week. Fever, shakes, the whole nine yards. I had planned to make a very complicated, full on crazy full size turtle cheesecake. But let's be honest folks, baking, and eating for that matter, are not fun when you're flat on your back with a fever of 101. So I cheated. I made Tiny Turtle Cheesecakes and I adore them. Quite likely the simplest dessert I've ever made in my life. Quite likely the cutest too.

Sarah
Turtles are my mom's fave, she'd love this!
Kim Bee
Mine too. You'll have to try them when she visits.
Carla
I just laughed when I read on the list you were making Turtle Cheesecakes 🙂 I like how you dont have to let these chill overnight! Yay instant indulgence!
Kim Bee
I am nothing if not predictable. I wanted to do a full on beautiful from scratch dish but man I was just too sick. This is a great thing to whip up when someone shows up at your door at the last minute.
Brianne @ Cupcakes & Kale Chips
These are adorable, and I'd rather have something like this than a heavy, dense cheesecake. Hope you are feeling better!
Kim Bee
Thanks Brianne. I feel the same way. So much lighter this way.
Starting to feel a tad better. Yah!
Cindys Recipes and Writings
Go Turtle Power!!!! 🙂 Feel better Kim!
Tom @ Waegook Tom
Adorable! Alas I'm not a great baker, even if cooking isn't required - desserts hate me. I may commission my little brother to make these. I don't know why I'm using the word "commission"...I certainly won't be paying him. Just inhaling in 0.3 seconds.
Kim Bee
I used to be the same way. Tackle something simple like this and the dessert world is your oyster. I realize that's a bad way to put it. The world is your cheesecake?? I bet you could whip these up no problem.
Jennie @themessybakerblog
You cheated? Really? These look too perfect for you to have cheated. I want to take one of those tiny spoons and dig in...deep! Yum! Feel better, Kim!
Sarah | Curious Cuisiniere
Hope you're feeling better! These look lovely, and it's great to have simple desserts like this up your sleeve for surprise guests. Turtle is one of my favorite flavor combos, so I'm completely sold!
Ramona
I love all your turtle creations. This is another fantastic no bake dessert. 🙂
Dara
Awww. Delicious treats are a great way to heal from a cold. Feel better!!!
Soni
Ooh I love such easy recipes since I'm not that good a baker!This looks so super easy and so delicious not to mention fast :)Yumm..
Hope you're feeling better now!
katie
Yum! I love no bake cheesecakes!!!
Ridwan
The caramel and choped pecan on this simple dessert is perfection 🙂 make my mouth watering right now 🙂
Angie @ Big Bear's Wife
I NEED these in my life, like asap! Those are so cute and I love the layered look in the glasses!
Lane @ Supper for a Steal
I love easy desserts like this. I'm not one for waiting. Baking and then cooling is just too much. When I want cheesecake I want it now!
Kristi Rimkus
I hope you're feeling better. A dessert like this would have me on the mend in no time flat. I love the automatic portion control too!
Kimme
Hi,
I've read through all the description and comments and don't see how many servings this makes. Could you please let me know?
Thanks,
Kim Beaulieu
Hi Kimme. I believe it serves 8 but I'll look through my old notes in my office tomorrow.
