New York Style Cheesecake Cupcakes
Mini New York–style cheesecakes baked in cupcake liners with a graham cracker crust—rich, creamy, and perfectly portioned for easy sharing.
For the Crust
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
For the Cheesecake Filling
- 16 oz 450 g cream cheese, softened
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
Mix graham crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press 1 tablespoon into each muffin cup.
Beat cream cheese until smooth. Mix in sour cream and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla and flour. Mix gently until smooth.
Spoon filling over crusts, about ⅔ full. Tap the pan to remove air bubbles.
Bake for 18–20 minutes, until edges are set and centers slightly jiggle. Turn off oven, crack door, and leave inside for 10 minutes.
Let cool at room temperature. Then chill in the fridge for 2 hours or overnight.
