Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup sugar. Stir in melted butter until crumbs are moistened. Press about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each mini muffin liner.
- In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese and 2/3 cup sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
- Spoon the cream cheese mixture evenly over the graham cracker crusts in the muffin liners.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly jiggly.
- Let cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
- You can top these with fruit, chocolate sauce, or whipped cream.
- For a chocolate crust, use chocolate cookie crumbs instead of graham crackers.
