Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started on these delightful mini cheesecakes! First, preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture into the bottom of the mini cupcake liners in the muffin tin, making sure it’s compact. Bake for about 5 minutes, then take them out of the oven and let them cool while you make the filling. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
