🧁 Mini Creme Brule Cheesecakes 🧁

1️⃣ Preheat and Prep: Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners for easy removal.
2️⃣ Make the Crust: In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press firmly into the bottom of each liner. Bake for 5 minutes, then set aside to cool.
3️⃣ Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla and heavy cream until creamy.
4️⃣ Fill and Bake: Spoon cheesecake batter over the crusts, filling each liner about 3/4 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until set but slightly jiggly in the center.
5️⃣ Cool and Chill: Let the cheesecakes cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
6️⃣ Create the Brule Topping: After chilling, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of sugar over each cheesecake. Using a kitchen torch, carefully caramelize the sugar until golden and crispy.
Enjoy the creamy and crunchy perfection of these Mini Creme Brule Cheesecakes! 🍰✨
