Effortless Mini Cheesecakes (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 16 ounces of softened cream cheese.
02 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar for the topping.
03 - 1 cup crushed graham crackers.
04 - 3 tablespoons of butter, melted.
05 - 1/2 cup sugar for the creamy filling.
06 - 2 eggs, large in size.
07 - 1/4 cup of heavy whipping cream.
08 - 1 teaspoon extract of vanilla.
09 - 2 tablespoons of sugar for the crust.

# Instructions:

01 - Turn your oven to 325°F and place muffin liners into your tin.
02 - Stir together the cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Spoon into liners, pressing down firmly, then bake for 5 minutes.
03 - In a bowl, whip cream cheese with sugar until creamy. Beat eggs in one at a time, then mix in heavy cream and vanilla.
04 - Divide the filling evenly over the crusts. Bake for 18-20 minutes, just until the centers are stable but jiggle a little.
05 - Let cool fully, then chill for 2 hours. Sprinkle sugar on top and caramelize with a torch before serving.

# Notes:

01 - Gluten-free graham crackers work great too.
02 - Caramelize the top layer right before eating.
