Ingredients

For the crust

  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs Lends a buttery warmth and slight sweetness.
  • 0.25 cups granulated sugar Enhances the sweetness.
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter Melted to bind together the crust.

For the cheesecake filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese Softened for rich texture.
  • 0.5 cups powdered sugar Provides a light sweetness.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract Enhances flavor.
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream Chilled for airiness.
  • 0.5 cups fresh strawberries Finely chopped for brightness.
  • 0.25 cups mini chocolate chips Optional for chocolatey flavor.
  • 0.5 cups fresh strawberries Sliced for garnish.

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar, then mix in the melted butter until well-combined.
  • Press the crust mixture into mini cupcake liners or silicone molds, and bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown.
  • Let the crust cool completely.

Filling

  • In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
  • Whip the chilled heavy cream in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, taking care to maintain fluffiness.
  • Add the finely chopped strawberries and fold gently until incorporated.
  • Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling onto the cooled crusts, filling generously.
  • Top with optional mini chocolate chips and garnish with sliced strawberries.
  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes

For best results, start with room temperature cream cheese and allow the crust to cool completely before adding the filling. These bites can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
