Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

16 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries) for topping

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are well coated and resemble wet sand.

    Layer the crust: Divide the crust mixture equally among 4 to 6 serving cups or jars, pressing it down firmly with the back of a spoon to create a solid base.

      Make the cheesecake filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until creamy. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined and smooth.

        Whip the cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture until fully incorporated, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

          Assemble the cups: Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling over the prepared crusts in the cups, filling them to about ¾ full. Smooth out the tops with a spatula.

            Chill: Cover the cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set. For the best flavor, let them chill for longer if you have time.

              Serve: Before serving, top each cheesecake cup with fresh berries and, if desired, a sprig of mint for a pop of color. Enjoy your delightful no-bake cheesecake cups!
