Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 cup Cherry pie filling
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 liners (about 1 tablespoon per liner) and press the crumbs firmly into the bottom to form a crust. Use the back of a spoon or the bottom of a small glass for an even press.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 3/4 cup of granulated sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating on low speed until fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
Spoon the cheesecake filling evenly over the graham cracker crusts in the prepared muffin tin, filling each liner about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the centers are set and slightly jiggle when the tin is gently shaken.
Remove the cheesecakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 15 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, refrigerate the mini cheesecakes for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled.
Before serving, top each cheesecake with a spoonful of cherry pie filling. Serve and enjoy!
