  • Once your Banana Mini Cheesecakes are out of the oven, let them cool down for about 1 hour before refrigerating them (overnight is always best, if not at least 3 good hours).

Cook them on both sides until they have softened and begin to caramelize. Add the dark Rum and let it simmer for 1 minutes or so.
