We bet you'll like doing this twist. We mean, who wouldn't love bite-sized cheesecake morsels with minty candy dancing inside?!

These are one of the cutest cheesecake ideas I have seen in some time. They will be on my "to make for the holidays" list for 2014. I think crushing some spearmint candy canes and alternating the red with green would be an eye-catching alternative, also.
