Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Filling

  • 1 ¼ cups heavy whipping cream
  • 24 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pink, purple, yellow, teal food coloring (to color the batter)
  • Whipped cream, sprinkles, candy for topping (optional)

Crust

  • ½ cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Whip the Cream: In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form, creating a light and airy texture.
  2. Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In another bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Mix until the batter is smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine Whipped Cream and Cream Cheese Mixture: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using the mixer until fully incorporated and smooth.
  4. Divide and Color Batter: Separate the cheesecake batter evenly into four bowls. Add a different food coloring to each to create pink, purple, yellow, and teal colored batters.
  5. Fill Piping Bags: Transfer each colored batter into separate Ziploc bags and snip off the corners for piping.
  6. Pipe Layers into Molds: Pipe one color into six silicone molds, then tap the mold gently on the counter to level the batter.
  7. Repeat Layers: Continue layering and piping different colored batters into the molds until nearly full, tapping after each layer to settle the mixture.
  8. Melt Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter until fully liquid.
  9. Prepare Crust Mixture: Stir the graham cracker crumbs and 1 tablespoon sugar into the melted butter until combined.
  10. Add Crust Topping: Spoon the graham cracker crust mixture onto the top of each cheesecake and gently press it into the batter to adhere.
  11. Freeze the Cheesecakes: Place the filled molds on a tray and freeze for 2 to 4 hours, allowing the cheesecakes to set firmly.
  12. Serve: Once set, carefully remove the mini cheesecakes from the molds. Garnish with whipped cream, sprinkles, or candy as desired before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute graham cracker crumbs with digestive biscuits if preferred.
  • Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the batter.
  • Use silicone molds for easy removal of cheesecakes.
  • Freezing time can vary; make sure cheesecakes are firm before unmolding.
  • These mini cheesecakes should be stored in the freezer and consumed within 3 days for best taste and texture.
