Quick and easy mini Cheesecakes with Blueberry toping


The other day I noticed I had bought two packages of cream cheese instead of just one. I wanted something fun to do with it, so I decided to try a new recipe! I found this recipe online but changed it around a bit! My entire family loved it and I will make it again! 

Quick and easy mini Cheesecakes with  Blueberry toping

Cheesecakes: 
8 graham crackers (Crushed into crumbs)
4 T. butter
8 oz. neufchâtel cheese
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 t. lemon juice
1/2 t. lemon zest

Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350, and line 9 muffin cups with paper liner and spray with pam. 
  • In a bowl, mix the graham cracker drums and butter until just moistened. Spoon 1 tablespoon into each cup, pack them down to make an even crust in each. Bake crusts for about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cream together the cream cheese, sugar, eggs, lemon zest and juice, and vanilla until mixed well. Top each crust with the cream cheese mixture, fill the cups almost to the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, let them cool completely then chill in the fridge for about an hour before serving. Before serving top with blubbery topping and then enjoy! 

Blueberry topping:

16 oz. frozen blue berries
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
3 t. cornstarch


  • To make topping combine all of the ingredients in a small sauce pan. Bring it to a boil, reduce   heat, and simmer until berries are reduced and the mixture thickness. (About 15 minutes.) Remove from heat and cool.
