Question

If this cheesecake requires 16 oz of cream cheese for 8 servings, how much cream cheese would be needed if you made a mini version of this pie that only served 2 people?

Answer 1

4 oz of cream cheese.

Explanation:

Assuming the recipe scales proportionally, you would need 4 oz of cream cheese for a mini version of this cheesecake that serves 2 people.

Here's the calculation:

If 16 oz of cream cheese serves 8 people, then each serving requires:

16 oz / 8 servings = 2 oz of cream cheese

To serve 2 people, you would need:

2 servings x 2 oz per serving = 4 oz of cream cheese.
