Strawberry Cheesecake Bites Recipe

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a mini muffin tin with cupcake liners or grease it lightly.
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter together until well combined.
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into each muffin tin cup and press down firmly with the back of a spoon to form the crust.
Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool while you prepare the filling.
Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue mixing until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and fluffy.
Step 3: Assemble the Bites

Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling onto the cooled graham cracker crusts, filling each cup just to the top.
Smooth the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Refrigerate the cheesecake bites for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Step 4: Prepare the Strawberry Topping

In a small bowl, combine the chopped strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat and let sit for about 15 minutes to release the strawberry juices.
Spoon the strawberry mixture on top of each cheesecake bite just before serving.
