Description
A delightful mini cheesecake topped with a crunchy strawberry topping that will tantalize your taste buds.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries
- 10–12 Golden Oreos, crushed
- 2 tablespoons freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Whipped cream (optional)
- Sliced fresh strawberries (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until combined. Press about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each muffin liner. Bake for 5-7 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Beat in the sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract until fully combined. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
- Spoon the cheesecake mixture evenly over the cooled crusts in the muffin tin. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the cheesecakes are set and slightly jiggly in the center. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.
- In a small bowl, combine the crushed Golden Oreos, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, and melted butter. Mix until the texture is crumbly.
- Once the mini cheesecakes are chilled, top each one with a generous amount of the strawberry crunch mixture.
- Top the mini cheesecakes with a dollop of whipped cream and a fresh strawberry slice, if desired. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
- For a lower-sugar option, consider using a sugar substitute in the cheesecake mixture.
- These cheesecakes can be made a day ahead of serving for convenience.
