Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 1.5 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Whipped topping (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons Graham cracker crumbs
- 1 teaspoons Butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoons Optional topping (e.g., fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, or caramel sauce)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until evenly combined.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a small ramekin, glass, or dessert cup to form a crust. Use the back of a spoon to press it down firmly.
In another bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Use a spoon or fork for easy mixing.
Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully incorporated, creating a light and fluffy texture.
Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the prepared graham cracker crust and smooth the top with the back of the spoon.
Add your choice of optional topping, such as fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, or caramel sauce, if desired.
Enjoy immediately for a soft and creamy texture, or chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes for a firmer consistency.
