- Press crumbs onto the bottoms of the lined muffin cups. Bake in preheated oven for 5 minutes.
- Remove pan to a wire rack to cool while you prepare the cheesecake filling.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or in a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat cream cheese for about two minutes. Add in sugar and mix for another minute. Add eggs and vanilla, beat well. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure the batter is thoroughly mixed.
