Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 sheets graham crackers
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 16 ounces cream cheese
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cups sour cream
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup assorted toppings (e.g., fruit, chocolate drizzle, or crushed nuts)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a mini muffin tin with mini paper liners or grease each cup lightly.
Place the graham crackers in a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Alternatively, crush the crackers in a resealable bag using a rolling pin.
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, 6 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the graham cracker mixture into each muffin cup. Use the back of a spoon or the bottom of a small glass to press the crumbs firmly into the base. Bake the crusts for 5 minutes, then set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and 3/4 cup granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Blend in the vanilla extract and salt. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition just until combined.
Fold in the sour cream until the cheesecake batter is smooth and uniform.
Spoon the cheesecake batter over the prepared crusts, filling each cup nearly to the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the centers are set but still slightly jiggly.
Remove the cheesecake nibblers from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 20 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Refrigerate the nibblers for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to fully set.
Just before serving, add your choice of toppings, such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of chocolate, or crushed nuts.
Serve chilled and enjoy these delightful Cheesecake Nibblers!
