🥘 Ingredients
For the Graham Cracker Crust
1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
6 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
For the Cheesecake Filling
8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup cold heavy whipping cream
Optional Christmas Toppings
Crushed peppermint candy
Mini chocolate chips
Whipped cream
Holiday sprinkles
Cherry pie filling
White chocolate drizzle
🥣🔥 Instructions / Methods
1. Make the Crust
In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar.
Stir until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press about 1–2 tablespoons of crust mixture into the bottoms of cupcake liners (or a mini cheesecake pan).
Firmly compact with a spoon or the bottom of a small cup.
Chill in the refrigerator while making the filling.
2. Prepare the Filling
In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract; continue whipping until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream into stiff peaks.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
3. Assemble the Mini Cheesecakes
Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling onto the chilled crusts.
Smooth the tops or swirl them decoratively with a piping bag.
Chill at least 2–4 hours, or until set (overnight is best).
4. Decorate
Top them with anything festive — crushed candy canes, berries, sprinkles, chocolate drizzle, edible glitter, or tiny gingerbread cookies.
5. Serve
Remove from the fridge and serve cold. These keep well for 3–4 days when refrigerated.
📜 History
While traditional cheesecakes go back thousands of years to ancient Greece, no-bake cheesecakes are a modern twist, rising in popularity in the mid-20th century as refrigeration became common. They became a holiday favorite because they are easy, beautiful, reliable, and can be made ahead — a dream for busy Christmas cooks.
Mini no-bake cheesecakes are now a holiday staple thanks to their convenience and endless decorating possibilities.
🔬 Formation: Why This Recipe Works
Graham Cracker + Butter creates a firm base that hardens perfectly when chilled.
Whipped Cream Folded In lightens the cream cheese, giving that airy, mousse-like texture.
No eggs & no baking mean it’s foolproof and beginner-friendly.
Chilling time allows the fats to solidify, helping the cheesecake set beautifully.
