White Chocolate Godiva Cheesecakes

My friend, whom I haven't seen in 8 years, since we worked at Disney together, was in town tonight from New Mexico and we had a chance to visit. I made these tasty, nommy morsels of White Chocolate Cheesecake goodness. We had a Seafood Baked Ziti for dinner, which I will have to post the recipe for as well, but for now....
