Creamy mini cheesecakes infused with blackberry and lavender flavors, perfect for dessert lovers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons dried lavender
  • 1 cup blackberries
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • Whipped cream for topping
  • Fresh blackberries for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until it resembles wet sand.
  3. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with cooking spray. Distribute the crust mixture, pressing down firmly.
  4. Bake for about 8-10 minutes until golden, then remove and let cool.
  5. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  6. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
  7. Spoon the cheesecake filling on top of the cooled crusts, smoothing the surface.
  8. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours.
  9. In a small saucepan, combine the blackberries, water, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until the blackberries have softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  10. Once thickened, remove from heat and let cool. Strain if desired.
  11. Remove the cheesecakes from the muffin tin, top with blackberry sauce and whipped cream, and garnish with fresh blackberries.
