Ingredients
Crust Ingredients
1cupGraham cracker crumbs
1/4cupUnsalted butter, melted
Filling Ingredients
8ozCream cheese, softened
1/2cupCreamy peanut butter
1/2cupPowdered sugar
1tspVanilla extract
1/2cupWhipped topping or whipped cream
Optional Toppings
Melted chocolate for drizzlingOptional
Chopped peanutsOptional
Mini chocolate chipsOptional
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until evenly combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed.
Spoon about a teaspoon of the crumb mixture into the bottom of each lined mini muffin cup. Press firmly to create a compact base.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, and continue beating until thoroughly combined and fluffy.
Gently fold the whipped topping or whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture until no streaks remain. Don’t overmix; you want a light and airy texture.
Spoon or pipe the peanut butter cheesecake filling onto the graham cracker crusts, filling each cup generously.
Drizzle melted chocolate over the top, and sprinkle with mini chocolate chips or chopped peanuts for extra flavor and texture.
Refrigerate the cheesecake bites for at least 2 hours, or until set and firm. For best results, keep them chilled until ready to serve.
Notes
Store these bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze them individually on a tray, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for up to 1 month.
