Description

Mini Chocolate Chip Cheesecakes combine creamy cheesecake with the sweet crunch of mini chocolate chips, creating the perfect bite-sized treat for any occasion.


Ingredients

  1. 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  2. 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  3. 1/4 cup melted butter
  4. 2 cups cream cheese, softened
  5. 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  6. 1 tsp vanilla extract
  7. 2 large eggs
  8. 1/2 cup sour cream
  9. 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  10. 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the crust mixture into each cup of a muffin tin (preferably lined with paper liners). Press the crumbs down firmly with the back of a spoon.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  3. Add the sour cream and mix until combined. Stir in the flour until smooth, then fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  4. Spoon the cheesecake batter into each muffin cup over the crust. Fill about 2/3 of the way up.
  5. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the cheesecakes are set around the edges but slightly jiggly in the center.
  6. Allow the cheesecakes to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then transfer to the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  7. Once chilled, remove the cheesecakes from the muffin tin and serve. Optionally, top with extra mini chocolate chips before serving.

Notes

  • These mini cheesecakes can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • To freeze, place the cheesecakes in a single layer on a baking sheet to freeze individually before transferring them to a freezer-safe container. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months.
  • If you don’t have mini chocolate chips, you can use regular chocolate chips, chopped into smaller pieces.
  • For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free graham cracker crumbs and check that your chocolate chips are gluten-free.
