While I like cheesecake, I don't usually order it at restaurants because I'm invariably served a boulder-sized slab of cake. If I had common sense this would be fine, but I usually end up eating most or all of the huge cheesecake wedge, then regretting it afterwards and blaming my stomachache on the innocent cheesecake. To circumvent this problem, I've come up with the perfect solution: bite-sized Lemon Cheesecake Truffles. These soft candies feature cream cheese and three types of lemon flavor, all rolled in crushed graham cracker crumbs. They taste exactly like lemon cheesecake, so I get to enjoy all of the creamy, tangy flavor of cheesecake without the guilt of having devoured a piece of cake the size of my head. Everybody wins!
