Description
Cheesecake cupcakes are a delightful twist on the classic cheesecake, featuring a buttery graham cracker crust and a creamy filling topped with blueberries and white chocolate.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Additional blueberries and white chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tbsp sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup to form a crust.
- Sprinkle a few fresh blueberries and white chocolate chips over each crust.
- In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, eggs, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth.
- Divide the filling mixture evenly among the muffin cups, pouring it over the blueberries and white chocolate chips.
- Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the centers are set. Allow them to cool in the pan on a wire rack.
- In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, powdered sugar, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract until smooth. Spoon the mixture over the cooled cupcakes.
- Garnish the cupcakes with additional blueberries and white chocolate shavings.
- Refrigerate the cupcakes for at least 2 hours before serving to allow them to set.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened for a smoother texture and avoid overmixing the filling to prevent cracks.
