- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth.
- Beat in the egg until well combined.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract until just blended.
- In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press about 1 teaspoon of the mixture into the bottom of each mini muffin liner.
- Spoon the cheesecake batter evenly over the graham cracker crust in each liner.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly jiggly.
- Let the cheesecakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- For a smoother cheesecake, ensure your cream cheese is truly softened.
- You can make your own graham cracker crumbs by pulsing graham crackers in a food processor.
- These cheesecakes can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
