Kitchen Tools You’ll Need
- Food processor or rolling pin (for crushing biscuits)
- Mixing bowls
- Hand whisk or electric mixer
- Silicone or metal mini cupcake molds
- Spoon or piping bag
- Refrigerator
Step-by-Step Recipe
Step 1: Prepare the Base
Crush the digestive biscuits using a food processor or zip-lock + rolling pin method. Add melted butter and mix until it resembles wet sand.
👉 Pro Tip: Press the mixture firmly into mini cupcake molds using the back of a spoon to avoid a crumbly base.
Chill the base in the fridge for 15–20 minutes to set.
Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling
In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and lump-free. Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice.
In a separate bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
👉 Texture Tip: The filling should be light, fluffy, and not overly runny.
Step 3: Assemble
Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling over the chilled biscuit base. Smooth out the top using the back of a spoon or spatula.
Step 4: Chill
Refrigerate the assembled cheesecake bites for 3–4 hours or overnight. This allows them to set and develop the perfect texture.
Step 5: Add Toppings & Serve
Once set, remove from molds carefully. Top each cheesecake bite with your choice of:
- A slice of strawberry 🍓
- A dollop of blueberry compote
- Crushed almonds or pistachios
- Drizzle of melted chocolate
- Sprinkle of lemon zest
Serve chilled and enjoy the compliments!

FAQs
Can I use paneer or hung curd instead of cream cheese?
Yes! Blend paneer or hung curd till smooth. However, the texture may vary slightly.
What if I don’t have cupcake molds?
You can use a mini muffin tray lined with cupcake liners or even make it in a square tray and cut into bars.
Can I skip whipped cream?
It’s important for the light texture. If you skip it, the filling may be denser, more like a cheesecake bar.
Is gelatin required?
No, but if you’re serving outdoors or want firmer bites, adding 1 tsp gelatin (bloomed and dissolved) to the filling helps.
