Mini Savory Onion Cheesecakes
PIN IT!So, who else isn’t ready at all for the Super Bowl and would rather rewatch all of Downton Abbey with wine? *Raises hand shamefully.* I must admit, I’m not a huge football girl. I used to be and then I found that I much prefer to watch dramatic soaps and unrealistic Lifetime movies. However, I can appreciate everything the Super Bowl represents and I just adore game-day food. But not just wings and pizza. I like gourmet game-day food. Like goat cheese stuffed jalapeno poppers, brie and fruit canapès and of course, these mini savory onion cheesecakes.
That’s right, SAVORY cheesecakes. At first, I was a little weary of them too. I mean, who puts onions in a cheesecake? What kind of demented freak? And then, because I had to taste test it, I smeared a little bit of the gooey cheese on a cracker and took a bite.
After one bite of the soft cheese and the caramelized onions, I thought “What kind of demented freak DOESN’T put onions on cheesecake?” It makes so much sense, in a weird way. Because of the soft caramelized onions and the savory flavor, you forget you’re eating a cheesecake at all. In fact, it’s more like an awesome mound of soft cheese and perfectly cooked onions. This is most definitely the perfect game-day appetizer because it’s sexy, gourmet and still absolutely delectable.

This stunning app is perfect for the Oscars,Valentine’s Day, date night or to bring with you when you visit your snarky neighbor who always seems to have the cleanest house, the most well behaved children, the perfect body and the most amazing outfits you’ve ever seen. She’ll totally look at these and go “Wow, you are so creative!” in that tone of voice that indicates that she is really jealous she didn’t think of it first.
And you know what guys? I’ll totally let you pretend you made it up, just for the sake of watching that smug neighbor’s face. Want the delicious recipe? GRAB IT HERE ON FABULOUS FOODS!
