Creamy Chocolate No-Bake Cheesecake Cups

Step 1

In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs until it’s evenly distributed.  Put approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the mixture into the bottom of each glass or serving dish.

Step 2

Add the heavy cream, unsweetened cocoa powder, and 3/4 cup powdered sugar into a mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat until stiff peaks form.  I prefer to do this in my Bosch mixer with whisk attachments, but any stand mixer or hand mixer will work.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and remaining powdered sugar until soft and completely smooth. Add the vanilla and beat again to combine.  Note: if you're using a stand mixer, you can transfer the chocolate mixture to a different bowl and use the same bowl to beat the cream cheese, without cleaning in-between.

Step 4

Fold the cream cheese mixture into the chocolate whipped cream mixture and mix until completely combined.

Step 5

Spoon the mixture into a piping bag (if you like) and pipe it into the cups. Or divide it evenly among your cups and spoon it in.

Step 6

Top with fresh fruit or more cookie crumbs, then cover and chill for at least an hour before serving.
