I think the whipped will be too soft. It needs to have a hold.
Eta, it looks delicious!

You wouldn't be able to substitute since the consistency of regular cream cheese is dense when chilled whereas whipped cream cheese remains soft. The reason most people use whipped (in my experience) is that it spreads more easily straight from the refrigerator whereas regular cream cheese can be harder to spread.
But you can't sub whipped for regular in a recipe. Recipes using whipped cream cheese will specify it.

Thanks! Regular it is. I only appreciate a few bites of cheesecake since its so rich so I thought this would be a fun idea. Ill let you all know how they come out.

I use whichever is on sale, so most of the time it's whipped. Never had any problems. And if I can say this myself, I make killer cheesecakes (from my guests mouths).

This is not baked so it is relying almost entirely in the consistency of the cream cheese to keep its shape. Think about a ball of whipped versus regular cream cheese in terms of holding a shape. You would not pick up a ball of whipped cream cheese -- especially at room temperature.

You are right. I didn't pay attention and thought we are talking about regular cheesecake. Whipped would be very hard to turn into balls. Tried that once.
