No Bake Mini Cheesecakes

These No Bake Mini Cheesecakes are rich and creamy and feature a homemade buttery graham cracker crust. Individual sized cheesecakes that you can make in a muffin tin!

These no-bake mini cheesecakes are my kind of dessert! Light, airy, decadent, and melt in your mouth delicious.

They’re individually sized, easy to make, and you can top them any way you like.

What I love most about these is that there is no oven baking required!

These make a great summer dessert for when it’s too hot to turn your oven on.

They’re practically impossible to mess up and they have the most delightful light and creamy texture from the homemade whipped cream.

How to make no bake mini cheesecakes

Step 1: Line a muffin tin with 12 muffin liners. Pulse the graham crackers into crumbs using a food processor or blender.

Step 2: Mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, salt, and brown sugar until combined.

Step 3: Distribute the graham cracker crust mixture into the bottom of the lined muffin tins, then press it down with the back of a spoon.

Place the pan with the crusts in the refrigerator while you make the cheesecake filling.

Step 4: Whip the heavy cream in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form.

Step 5: In a separate mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.

Add the vanilla extract and fresh lemon juice and beat to combine.

Recipe Tip

Fresh lemon juice brightens the flavor of these cheesecakes without overwhelming them. It really gives these cheesecakes a “wow” factor.

Step 6: Use a rubber spatula to gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no lumps remain.

Step 7: Distribute the cheesecake filling evenly into the 12 muffin cups, smoothing out the tops.

Step 8: Refrigerate the mini cheesecakes for at least 3 hours, until set.

These are so lusciously creamy and my family loved them!

I love no-bake cheesecake because it is so much simpler to make than a traditional cheesecake.

Try these the next time you are craving your cheesecake fix!
