Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 1 cup Graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tbsp Melted butter (enough to bind crumbs) Adjust amount as needed to bind the crumbs.

Filling

  • 8 oz Cream cheese, softened Soften to room temperature for best results.
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Whipped cream Gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.

Flavor variations / Toppings

  • Chocolate or peanut butter For flavor variation or toppings.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Gently fold in the whipped cream until well combined and light.
  • For the crust, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until moistened, then press into the bottom of mini cups or molds.
  • Pour or spoon the cheesecake mixture over the crust, smoothing the tops.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours until fully set.
  • Top with your choice of chocolate or peanut butter before serving.

Notes

Soften cream cheese to room temperature for a lump-free filling. Fold whipped cream gently to keep the mousse light and airy. Press crust firmly into molds so it holds when serving. Chill at least 4 hours or overnight for best texture. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
