Ingredients
FOR GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST:
- 6 full graham crackers about a rounded ⅔ cup
- 3 tablespoons butter melted
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
FOR CHEESECAKE FILLING:
- 8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- ¼ cup granulated sugar

Instructions
FOR THE GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST:
- Preheat the oven to 350° F.
- Line the mini muffin tin with paper liners or make your own parchment cups. See video.
- Break up 6 full graham crackers and transfer to the bowl of a mini prep food processor. Pulse several times to break them down into large crumbs. Add 3 tablespoons melted butter, ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ cup granulated sugar and pulse again until well combined.
- Divide the crumb mixture between the muffin rounds (about 2 teaspoons per round). Use a tamper to press the buttered graham cracker crumbs into the tins, so they stick together. Bake for about 4 minutes and remove from the oven. Set aside.
FOR THE CHEESECAKE FILLING:
- In a large bowl, combine 8 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature) and ¼ cup granulated sugar. Beat with a hand mixer until the mixture is very smooth and there are no lumps.
- Add t¼ cup sour cream,½ teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice and beat on medium speed to combine. Add1 egg and beat until the filling is thick and creamy.
- Divide the cheesecake batter between the prepared muffin tins, (about 1 tablespoon per cheesecake bite) and bake for 12-14 minutes or until set with a slight jiggle in the center. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature.
Notes
- Store the cheesecake bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Garnish with a teaspoon of your favorite jam or preserves, sliced fresh fruit or berries or whipped cream.
