Description
Delicious mini cheesecakes topped with a fresh berry mixture, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
- Press about 1 tablespoon of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each muffin liner to form the crust. Bake for 5 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, mixing until well combined.
- Add the egg and sour cream, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crusts in the muffin tin, filling each liner about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecakes inside for an additional 10 minutes. Then, remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature.
- Refrigerate the mini cheesecakes for at least 2 hours before serving.
- In a small bowl, combine the mixed berries, powdered sugar, and lemon juice. Gently toss to coat.
- Top each mini cheesecake with the berry mixture just before serving.
Notes
- For a chocolate twist, add 1/4 cup of cocoa powder to the cream cheese mixture before baking.
- For a different fruit topping, try using sliced peaches or a fruit compote instead of mixed berries.
