Equipment

  • muffin tin
  • Electric Mixer

Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs from 12 whole crackers
  • 6 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon

For the Mini Cheesecakes

  • 16 oz cream cheese softened, from two 8oz packages
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk

Topping Ingredients

  • 1 cup caramel sauce
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream chilled
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon to garnish, optional

Instructions
 

How to Make the Crust

  • Preheat Oven to 350˚F. Line a 24-count muffin tin with standard cupcake liners.
  • In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and cinnamon. Stir to evenly moisten crumbs.
  • Divide crumbs between cupcake liners, about 1 tablespoon in each, and press crumbs into the base and slightly up the sides.

How to Make Mini Cheesecakes

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and eggs on high speed for 5 minutes until blended and smooth.
  • Add condensed milk and mix on low speed until blended (about 2 minutes).
  • Divide cheesecake mix evenly between cupcake liners, filling about ¾ full, and bake at 350˚F for 15 minutes.
  • Cool to room temp, then spoon caramel sauce over each cheesecake. Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
  • Top with whipped cream and dust lightly with cinnamon if desired.

How to Make Whipped Cream

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine cold heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla, then beat with an electric mixer on high speed for 2 minutes until fluffy.

Notes

For gluten free, use GF crackers/cookies or omit the crust. Mixing condensed milk on LOW speed helps avoid excess air bubbles.
