Tips & Tricks:

  • Graham Crackers: Make sure to use classic flavoured crackers to get a nice traditional taste
  • Baking: Be careful not to over bake your cheesecake. The cheesecake should have a slight jiggle in the middle. It will set in the fridge.
  • Cooling: Since these are mini cheesecakes they will take less time to set. Only 2 hours in the fridge should be good enough. A full size cheesecake will take a whole day to set.
  • Storage: Keep these in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
