Ingredients

Scale
  • 150g (about 1 1/4 cups) digestive biscuits or graham crackers, crushed
  • 60g (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
  • 250g (9 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 100g (1/2 cup) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 180ml (3/4 cup) heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 150g (about 1 cup) fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • Optional: a few whole strawberries or mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Crush the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or place them in a sealed plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin. Mix the crushed biscuits with melted butter and sugar until fully combined.
  2. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the biscuit mixture into each mini muffin cup or silicone mold. Press down firmly to create an even, compact base. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer on medium speed.
  4. In a separate bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula until just combined and light and airy.
  6. Spoon the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in each mold, filling to just below the rim. Smooth the tops.
  7. Refrigerate the mini cheesecakes for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight, to set properly.
  8. Just before serving, top each cheesecake bite with a fresh strawberry slice or a small whole strawberry and a mint leaf, if using.

Notes

Softening cream cheese is key to avoid lumps; leave it out 30 minutes before mixing or microwave for 10 seconds. Whip cream until stiff peaks form for best texture. Fold whipped cream gently to keep filling airy. Press crust firmly to prevent crumbling. Chill overnight for best results. Silicone molds make removal easier; if using muffin tins, consider paper liners.
