  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 46 minute

Ingredients

– 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 16 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 2 large eggs
– 1/2 cup sour cream
– Toppings: fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, whipped cream, or caramel sauce (optional)


Instructions

Making Mini Cheesecake Cups is a fun and easy process. Just follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 325°F (160°C) to prepare for baking.
2. Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
3. Fill the Muffin Tin: Place cupcake liners in a muffin tin. Spoon the crumb mixture into each liner, pressing down firmly to form a crust.
4. Bake the Crust: Bake the crusts in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes until lightly golden. Remove and let cool.
5. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well-blended.
6. Add the Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Finally, mix in the sour cream until smooth.
7. Pour the Filling: Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the cooled crusts, filling each cup to about 3/4 full.
8. Bake the Cheesecake: Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. The centers should be set but slightly jiggly.
9. Cool Down: Once baked, let the cheesecake cups cool at room temperature for about an hour. Then, refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set completely.
10. Add Toppings: Before serving, top each cheesecake cup with your desired toppings, such as fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, or whipped cream.

These simple steps will guide you through creating these incredible Mini Cheesecake Cups effortlessly.
