Mini Strawberry Cheesecakes

January 30, 2015 by Angela LeMoine 10 Comments

Mini Strawberry Cheesecakes | LeMoine Family Kitchen  .... Perfect sweet treat for the one you love on Valentines Day.

 

Me, I disagree with the whole thing about Valentines Day being a “Hallmark” holiday. I don’t see it as a day that is about buying a giant heart shaped pillow or a giant box of chocolate. For me, its a a day to show some extra love to the ones in your life that mean a whole lot to you. I am a lucky lady that not only has a wonderful husband to celebrate with but our two boys too! Oh and lets not forget the most delicious part of Valentines Day, dessert!! I made these Mini Strawberry Cheesecakes and they are the perfect sweet treat to share with your love {or just to make on a random day because they are yummy!}. 

I love that these are personal sized rather then a whole big cheesecake. They are adorable and fun! The crust is simply graham cracker crumbs and some melted butter. The filling is delicious thanks to a fresh strawberry syrup that is added the the traditional cheesecake filling ingredients; creamy goodness! I topped each with whipped cream and some cute heart sprinkles. I will note that I cheated and used store bought whipped cream but I’ll tell ya, the stuff flattened out really quickly. Next time I will definitely remember to pick up whipping cream and make my own!

Mini Strawberry Cheesecakes
Author: Angela LeMoine
 
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ melted butter
  • 1 lb strawberries, chopped
  • ¼ cup water
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 2- 8 oz pkg greek yogurt cream cheese, room temp
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 eggs, room temp
  • 2 Tbsp heavy cream
  • whipped cream
  • sprinkles
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a pot, over medium low heat, add the strawberries, water and sugar. Cook down until thickened to the consistency of jam. Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent burning. Cool completely.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs.
  4. Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of 12 cupcake liners in a cupcake pan. Using a shot glass or something similar, press the crust firmly down.
  5. In a large bowl add the cream cheese, eggs, powdered sugar, heavy cream and the cooled strawberry mixture.
  6. Using a hand mixer, mix until well incorporated, smooth and creamy.
  7. Pour the mixture into the cupcake liners, as evenly as possible.
  8. Bake for approx. 16-18 minutes until the filling is mostly set. Cool Completely. Top with whipped cream and some sprinkles.

    These are so cute! And, I really like that they are pretty small; I don’t need a big dessert, just a little nibble!
