Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup crushed graham crackers
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
- 1/2 cup whipped cream
Instructions
Line a mini muffin tin with mini cupcake liners to ensure easy removal of the cheesecake bites once they are set.
In a bowl, combine crushed graham crackers with melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Spoon the crust mixture into the prepared mini muffin tin, pressing it down firmly to form a solid base.
In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Ensure there are no lumps for a creamy filling.
Gently incorporate the eggs into the cheesecake mixture. Mix until just combined to avoid overbeating.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust in each muffin tin, filling them about 3/4 full.
Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C) and bake for approximately 15 to 20 minutes, or until the centers are set but still slightly jiggly.
Allow the cheesecake bites to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to the refrigerator. Chill for at least 2 hours to set completely.
Once chilled, remove the cheesecake bites from the liners and serve. Consider topping them with fresh strawberries or whipped cream for added flavor.
