Chocolate Morsels
- 1/4 cup chopped salted peanuts

Paper-line 22 muffin cups. Line a 12-cup

- Combine cookie crumbs, melted butter and
Nesquik in small bowl; mix well. Divide crumbs between 12 muffin
cups and gently pat down to form a crust.
- Beat cream cheese and peanut butter in
large mixer bowl until fluffy. Beat in extract and sugar until
smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

evenly over the cookie crust in each cup.

Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool for 20 minutes.

- Remove papers from cheesecakes and place
on a large serving tray or individual dessert plates. Prepare
the ganache.
- Bring whipping cream to a gentle boil
in a small saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat; stir
in morsels. Use a wire whisk to whisk until completely combined
and smooth. Let the ganache cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
