Ingredients for Mini Caramel Cheesecakes:
These mini cheesecakes come together effortlessly and can be easily doubled to satisfy a larger gathering.
- Cream Cheese: Ensure it’s at room temperature for even mixing. We opt for regular cream cheese bricks to achieve the ideal texture and flavor. Light or whipped alternatives may not yield the same results in terms of taste and consistency.
- Eggs: Using room-temperature eggs is the key to achieving a smooth batter.
- Sweetened Condensed Milk: This secret ingredient adds the perfect level of sweetness and creaminess to the cheesecake.
- Crust: A blend of graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and cinnamon creates the ultimate cheesecake crust. For those preferring a gluten-free option, feel free to substitute GF graham crackers or skip the crust altogether.
Make-Ahead:
These mini caramel cheesecakes are perfect for preparing in advance. You can fully assemble, decorate, cover, and refrigerate them overnight. Surprisingly, ours tasted even better the next day, maintaining their perfect appearance. We’re big fans of make-ahead desserts!
- To Refrigerate: Simply cover them in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
- Freezing: If you’re planning to freeze them, do so before adding the sauce or whipped cream topping. Flash-freeze the cheesecakes by placing them on a sheet pan in the freezer. Once frozen, transfer them to a covered container or airtight zip-top bag, ensuring to remove any excess air.
- To Serve: Thaw the cheesecakes in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
These mini caramel cheesecakes are not only incredibly easy to make but also wonderfully creamy and delicious! Prepare them a day in advance to simplify your hosting duties before entertaining friends and family. With their irresistible flavor and adorable presentation, these cheesecake cupcakes are the ultimate party dessert!
