Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Mini Christmas Cheesecakes
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Gather your ingredients and equipment.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sugar. Beat on medium speed until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Mix in the vanilla extract and sour cream until well blended.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition until fully incorporated.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers with melted butter. Mix until the crumbs hold together.
  6. Line a muffin tin with mini cupcake liners. Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each liner.
  7. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crusts, filling each mini liner about three-quarters full.
  8. Bake for about 20 minutes until the edges are set but the centers jiggle slightly.
  9. Cool for about 10 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours.
  10. Before serving, sprinkle with festive red and green sprinkles on top.
