Description

Mini Strawberry Cheesecakes are the perfect bite-sized dessert for any occasion, featuring a buttery graham cracker crust, creamy cheesecake filling, and vibrant fresh strawberry topping. Easy to make ahead, these mini treats are sure to impress!


Ingredients

For the crust:

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

¼ cup granulated sugar

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the cheesecake filling:

16 oz cream cheese, softened

½ cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs

1 cup sour cream

½ cup heavy cream

For the strawberry topping:

1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, chopped

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat to 325°F (163°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners or grease with non-stick spray.
  2. Prepare the Crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press about 1 tablespoon into each muffin cup. Bake for 5-7 minutes and let cool.
  3. Make the Filling: Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add vanilla, then eggs one at a time, mixing well. Stir in sour cream and heavy cream.
  4. Bake Cheesecakes: Fill each muffin cup nearly to the top with cheesecake filling. Bake for 20-25 minutes until set with a slight jiggle in the center. Cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  5. Prepare the Topping: Cook strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until thickened. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate.
  6. Assemble: Top each chilled cheesecake with the strawberry mixture before serving.

Notes

To save time, use store-bought graham cracker crumbs.

Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the filling.

For a smoother topping, blend the cooked strawberry mixture.
