These Santa Hat Cheesecake Bites are a merry mini dessert that’s as cute as it is delicious. Creamy, bite-sized cheesecakes sit on a graham cracker base and are topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream to create the perfect Santa hat. Ideal for parties, trays, and little hands!


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

3 tbsp melted butter

2 tbsp sugar

For the Cheesecake Filling:

8 oz cream cheese (softened)

¼ cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 egg

Fresh strawberries (hulled)

Whipped cream or topping


Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.

Mix graham crumbs, butter, and sugar. Press 1 tsp into each liner to form crust.

Beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and egg until smooth. Spoon over crusts.

Bake for 12–15 minutes until just set. Cool, then chill at least 2 hours.

Top each with a strawberry and a dollop of whipped cream on top and around the base to form a Santa hat.
