Ingredients
- For the Cheesecake Base:
1 1/2 cups 1 1/2 (180g) graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup 1/4 (50g) granulated sugar
1/2 cup 1/2 (115g) unsalted butter, melted
16 ounces 16 (450g) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup 1/2 (100g) granulated sugar
2 large 2 eggs
1 teaspoon 1 vanilla extract
- For the Strawberry Compote:
1 1/2 cups 1 1/2 (180g) fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
1/4 cup 1/4 (50g) granulated sugar
1 tablespoon 1 water
1 teaspoon 1 cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
Directions
- For the Cheesecake Base:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a mini muffin pan with paper liners or use silicone molds. Set it aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Press about 1 tablespoon of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup to form the crust.
- In another mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Fill each muffin cup with the cream cheese mixture, almost to the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers are slightly jiggly.
- Remove the mini cheesecakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- For the Strawberry Compote:
- While the mini cheesecakes are cooling, make the strawberry compote. In a saucepan, combine the diced strawberries, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and water.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries release their juices and the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- If needed, you can add a teaspoon of cornstarch dissolved
