Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 16 oz (2 blocks) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
- ½ cup white chocolate chips, melted
- A few drops of pastel food coloring (pink, yellow, lavender, teal)
- 12 mini candy eggs (speckled or pastel)
- Whipped cream (store-bought or homemade)
- Rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners or use a silicone mini cheesecake mold.
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Press about 1½ tablespoons into each mold. Chill while you make the filling.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix until creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whip cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
- Spoon or pipe the filling over the crusts, smoothing the tops with a spoon or spatula.
- Divide melted white chocolate into small bowls. Add a drop of pastel food coloring to each. Swirl small amounts on top of each cheesecake using a toothpick.
- Chill for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Once set, top with whipped cream, a mini candy egg, and rainbow sprinkles before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth filling.
- You can customize the colors of the food coloring to suit your preference.
- These cheesecakes can be made a day in advance for ease.
