Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
  2. Divide the mixture evenly among 6 glass cups, pressing down with a spoon to create a firm crust.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, continuing to beat until well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
  7. Spoon the cream cheese filling over the graham cracker crust in each cup, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
  8. Top each cheesecake cup with an assortment of fresh berries. Sprinkle with chocolate shavings and garnish with mint leaves.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the cheesecake cups to set.

Helpful Tips

For an easier process, use pre-made graham cracker crusts. You can also substitute the graham crackers with your favorite cookies or digestive biscuits. For a flavor twist, add a tablespoon of lemon juice to the cream cheese mixture.

Storage Instructions

Store the cheesecake cups in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days. Make sure to add the fresh berries just before serving to prevent them from becoming soggy.
