Delicious Cheesecake Cupcakes Recipe - Easy & Quick

Ingredients

Servings:
6
  • 1 cup cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup fruit topping (like strawberries or blueberries)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated to avoid uneven baking.
  2. Prepare the Muffin Tin

    Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.

    This helps with easy removal after baking.
  3. Mix the Batter

    In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add vanilla, eggs, and sour cream, mixing until well combined.

    Use a hand mixer for a smoother consistency.
  4. Fill the Liners

    Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each liner about 2/3 full.

    Avoid overfilling to prevent overflow during baking.
  5. Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the centers are set.

    Use a toothpick to check if they are done; it should come out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve

    Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Top with fruit or whipped cream if desired before serving.
