Ingredients
  

  • For the Crust optional but recommended:
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs or digestive biscuit crumbs
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • For the Cheesecake Filling 3 ingredients:
  • 16 oz 452g full-fat brick cream cheese, softened to room temp
  • ½ cup powdered sugar or granulated sugar
  • 1 cup cold heavy whipping cream

Instructions
 

  • Prep the Crust (Optional)
  • Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until combined. Press about 1½ tablespoons into each cupcake liner. No need to bake — just chill while making the filling.
  • Whip the Cream
  • In a chilled bowl, beat cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form (about 2–3 minutes). Set aside.
  • Make the Cheesecake Base
  • In another bowl, beat softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy.
  • Combine
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated. Don’t overmix — keep it airy and light.
  • Assemble
  • Spoon or pipe the filling over each prepared crust. Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon.
  • Chill & Serve
  • Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. Serve as-is, or top with fruit, jam, or a drizzle of chocolate.
