Instructions
- Before you get started, line your muffin pan (or mini cheesecake pan) with cupcake liners to make them easy to remove. Set aside.
- Start by crushing the graham crackers in a food processor into fine crumbs. Alternatively, you can place them in a large Ziploc bag and crush them with a large rolling pin. Add to a small bowl and combine graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter until it reaches the consistency of wet sand.
- Add a heaping spoonful of the mixture into each of the cupcake liners and press into the bottom to create a graham cracker crust. Set aside.
- Add the cream cheese and sugar to the mixer bowl of a stand mixer. Cream until smooth. Scrape the sides and mix again until well incorporated.
- Add the vanilla and heavy whipping cream to the bowl. Whip on medium speed for 1 minute. Scrape the sides of the bowl and continue mixing for an additional 30 seconds.
- Pour the cheesecake mixture into the liners and fill to the top. Place in the fridge to set for 2-4 hours, or until firm.
- Once chilled, finish with the toppings.
- For the first layer, add a teaspoon worth of caramel sauce over the top of each of the mini cheesecakes.
- Next add a dollop of melted chocolate on top of the caramel drizzles.
- And finally finish with a sprinkle of pecan pieces over the top of each cheesecake. Enjoy!
