Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam
  • Fresh raspberries, for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated.
  3. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the graham cracker mixture into each cupcake liner. Use the back of a spoon or a tamper to press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of each liner.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the sugar, vanilla extract, and flour. Mix until well combined.
  5. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Finally, add the sour cream and mix until the batter is smooth and creamy.
  6. Spoon the cream cheese mixture into each cupcake liner, filling them about three-fourths of the way.
  7. Drop a small dollop of raspberry jam on top of each cheesecake and use a toothpick or skewer to swirl it gently.
  8. Bake the cheesecakes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly jiggly.
  9. Remove the cheesecakes from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes.
  10. Transfer the cheesecakes to a wire rack and let them cool completely. Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecakes for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  11. Before serving, garnish each cheesecake with fresh raspberries. Enjoy!
