No-Bake Turtle Mini Cheesecakes

Ingredients

Crust:

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Cheesecake Filling:

  • 8 oz (1 block) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream (cold)

Turtle Topping:

  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce
  • 1/4 cup chocolate sauce or hot fudge
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Make the Crust:
    In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until evenly combined.
    Press about 1-2 tablespoons into the bottom of each cupcake liner in a muffin pan. Chill in the fridge while preparing the filling.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling:
    In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
    In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
    Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  3. Assemble the Mini Cheesecakes:
    Spoon or pipe the filling evenly into the prepared crusts. Smooth the tops with a spoon.
    Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until firm.
  4. Add the Turtle Topping:
    Drizzle each cheesecake with caramel and chocolate sauce.
    Sprinkle chopped pecans over the top just before serving.

Tip:
For extra indulgence, top with a dollop of whipped cream or a mini chocolate turtle candy!
