Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your muffin tin with paper liners.

  3. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the cheesecake filling into each muffin cup over the crust, filling three-quarters full. Top with drained pineapple chunks, pressing gently.
