These No Bake Mini Strawberry Cheesecakes are sweet and tart with a smooth, creamy, and light texture. Freezing before serving makes them super easy to eat and the perfect cool bite-size summer dessert!

 

Ingredients

For the crust:

– 1 cup graham cracker crumbs

– 2 tablespoons sugar

– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the cheesecake filling:

– 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

– 1/2 cup powdered sugar

– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

– 1 cup heavy whipping cream

– 1/2 cup strawberry puree (from fresh or frozen strawberries)

– 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture evenly into the bottoms of 12 muffin cups lined with paper liners. Set aside.

 

2. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and beat until combined.

 

3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.

 

4. Add strawberry puree and lemon juice to the mixture, and fold until well combined.

 

5. Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling over the prepared crusts in the muffin cups.

 

6. Freeze for at least 5 hours or until firm.

 

7. Before serving, remove from the freezer and let sit for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh strawberries, if desired.

 

Notes

– For a smoother texture, strain the strawberry puree to remove seeds.

– These mini cheesecakes can be made ahead and stored in the freezer for up to a week.

– For a fun twist, drizzle with chocolate sauce or top with whipped cream before serving.
