For base
12 oz Graham Cracker crumbs
butter
Cake batter:
2(8 oz) Cream cheese
1 cup Sour Cream
1/2 a Lemon freshly squeezed juice
1 cup Sugar
2 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla extract
For topping: Cherry/mixed berry pie filling, or whatever you like
Also need paper liners for cupcakes.
Method:
1. Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature(cheese, eggs, sour cream). Turn on oven at 350F.
2. Mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter in a chopper. Place half a spoon of mixture in each paper cup.
3. Beat cream cheese until liquidy, mix sour cream and beat again. Do the same with sugar and eggs one by one. Mix vanilla extract at the end.
4. Fill each cup with the cheese batter. Bake in the oven for around 12 mins. Turn off oven and leave the door open, please dont take out the cakes immediately, they'll crack in the middle. Take them out when cooled a little and then top them with pie filling or your favorite toppings. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
