In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add the eggs:
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Fill the muffin cups:
Spoon the cheesecake filling over the baked crusts, filling each cup almost to the top.
Bake the Cheesecake Bites:
Bake:
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the centers are set and slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven and let the cheesecake bites cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled.
