Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tbsp salted butter, melted
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions
- Stir together the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs in a small bowl until evenly distributed.
- Put approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the crumb mixture into the bottom of each glass or serving dish.
- Press the crumb mixture down gently to form a crust.
- Pour the heavy whipping cream into a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
- Beat the cream on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 1 minute.
- Scrape the whipped cream into a second bowl and set aside.
- Combine the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and pure vanilla extract in the same mixer bowl.
- Mix until the cream cheese mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until completely combined and creamy.
- Spoon the cheesecake mixture into a piping bag, if desired, or directly into the cups.
- Pipe or spoon the mixture evenly among your prepared cups.
- Top with fresh fruit or other optional toppings.
- Cover the cups and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth filling.
Do not overbeat the heavy cream; stop once stiff peaks form.
Chill for at least one hour for the best set.
Use a clean, dry bowl and whisk for whipping cream to ensure success.
