No Bake Mini Cherry Cheesecakes are easy, creamy individual desserts made with a graham cracker crust, smooth cheesecake filling, and a sweet cherry topping—perfect for parties, holidays, or make-ahead treats.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup cherry pie filling
  • Optional: cupcake liners or small jars for serving

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until combined.
  2. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or use small jars. Press 1–2 tablespoons of the crust mixture into the bottom of each liner or jar. Chill while preparing the filling.
  3. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth.
  4. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined and creamy.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until light and smooth.
  7. Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling over the crust in each liner or jar. Smooth the tops.
  8. Top each with a spoonful of cherry pie filling.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours or overnight until set.
  10. Serve chilled. Optionally remove paper liners before serving.

Notes

  • Make ahead and chill overnight for best texture.
  • Use whipped topping instead of heavy cream for convenience.
  • Top just before serving if freezing the cheesecakes.
  • Add lemon zest to the filling for brightness.
