For the Crust

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with parchment or cupcake liners.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until fully blended. Press into the muffin liners and bake for 5 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add vanilla and eggs, mixing until smooth.
  4. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crusts, tapping the tin to eliminate air bubbles.
  5. Place the muffin tin inside a larger baking pan, fill with boiling water half up the muffin tin sides, then bake for 25-30 minutes.
  6. Remove from the water bath and allow to cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours before serving.
