- Evenly divide the cream cheese mixture among the crusts in the mini cheesecake pan or muffin tin.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the centers of the cheesecakes are set.
- Remove the mini cheesecakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- If desired, top each cheesecake with a teaspoon of strawberry jam and spread it gently over the surface.
- Transfer the mini cheesecakes to a wire rack to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
