Instructions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix graham crumbs, 2 tablespoons sugar and butter; press onto bottoms of 18 paper-lined muffin pan cups.
Beat cream cheese, remaining sugar and vanilla with mixer until blended. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each just until blended. Pour over crusts.
Bake 25-30 minutes or until centers are almost set. Cool completely. Refrigerate 2 hours.
Beat whipping cream with mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form; spread gently onto cheesecakes. Top with blueberries and lemon zest.
Variation: Omit the whipping cream, blueberries and lemon zest. Bake and refrigerate cheesecakes as directed. Spread evenly with 1/3 cup strawberry jam. Garnish with fresh strawberry halves and mint sprigs. Or, spread each cheesecake with 2 tablespoons Philadelphia Indulgence Milk Chocolate, then top with 1 teaspoon
