  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cups sifted confectioner's sugar (2 ounces)
  • 1 cup heavy cream chilled
  • 1 cup prepared pie filling such as blueberry, strawberry, cherry, or raspberry

  • Cups or jars
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
    Start by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
  2. Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling
    In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth. Gradually add in the sifted confectioner's sugar and mix until fully incorporated.
  3. Step 3: Whip the Cream
    In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This will give your cheesecake filling a light and airy texture.
  4. Step 4: Combine the Mixtures
    Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
  5. Step 5: Assemble the Cups
    In your serving cups or jars, start with a layer of cheesecake filling, followed by a layer of graham cracker crumble topping. Repeat the layers until the cups are filled, finishing with a generous dollop of your chosen pie filling on top.
  6. Step 6: Chill and Serve
    Refrigerate the assembled cups for at least 2 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cheesecake to set.

Notes

  • Make sure your cream cheese is fully softened; this will prevent lumps in your cheesecake filling.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar based on your sweetness preference.
  • For a fun presentation, consider garnishing with fresh fruit or a mint sprig.
  • These cups are best enjoyed within 3-4 days of making, but they can last up to a week in the refrigerator.
