Ingredients
  

For the crust:

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the cheesecake filling:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Zest of 1 lemon

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

1 cup heavy whipping cream

For the raspberry topping:

1 cup fresh raspberries

2 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined and the mixture resembles wet sand.

    Form the Crust: Spoon the crumb mixture into the bottoms of mini cheesecake cups or a muffin tin lined with cupcake liners. Press down firmly to form an even crust. Place in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the filling.

      Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add granulated sugar, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Beat until well combined and there are no lumps.

        Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined and creamy.

          Assemble the Cheesecakes: Spoon the cheesecake filling over the prepared crusts, smoothing the tops with a spatula. Tap the cups gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.

            Prepare the Raspberry Topping: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine fresh raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring gently until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

              Serve: Once the cheesecakes are set, top each one with a spoonful of the raspberry topping. You can garnish with a fresh raspberry and a sprig of mint if desired. Enjoy your delightful no-bake mini cheesecakes!
