These mini cheesecakes are so cute and fun! This quick and easy recipe is much easier than a regular cheesecake. They are made with only a few ingredients. The shortbread cookie crust is buttery and delicious!

Instructions
- To start, preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.
- Place one shortbread cookie in the bottom of each muffin liner.
- Then, make cheesecake filling. Beat room temperature cream cheese in stand mixer for 2 minutes or until completely creamy.
- Add in granulated sugar and sour cream. Beat until there are no clumps of cream cheese.
- Next, add in vanilla and eggs. Beat until just combined. Do not over mix the eggs.
- Add cheesecake filling on top of shortbread cookies in muffin liners.
- Bake for 14 to 16 minutes or until cheesecakes are just slightly wobbly when the pan is shaken.
- Finally, remove pan from oven. Allow mini cheesecakes to cool at room temperature for 1 hour. Then transfer to the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours.
Notes
- Any type of shortbread cookies work. I used gluten free shortbread cookies. Oreos can also be used.
- Use room temperature cream cheese. This is highly important. Cold cream cheese will not cream together with the other ingredients.
- Do not over mix the eggs. Mix until just combined.
- The cheesecakes should be slightly jiggly when the pan is shaken. They will firm up as they cool down.
- Store cheesecakes in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Freeze for up to 2 months if needed.
