Instructions: Fruits, nuts, and other edible, decorative toppings (see below for ideas)

Cream cream cheese and sugar in mixer bowl; add eggs, and beat until well blended. Add vanilla. Preheat oven to 325-F degrees. Place one cookie in each of 24 foil liners in muffin cups. Bake 25 minutes, or until set but not browned.

Cool, then chill. Before serving, decorate with toppings of your choice: perfect, individual berries; strawberry fans; chocolate curls (white or dark), thinly sliced fresh peaches and/or kiwi fruit; whole pecan or walnut halves; diced macadamia nuts and mandarin orange slices; spoonfuls of preserves or pie filling.
