Crust

Method

Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture is well combined and resembles wet sand.

  2. 2

    Shape the Crust

    Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of individual tartlet pans or muffin tins to form an even layer. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool.

Filling Preparation

  1. 3

    Blend the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until fully incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, sour cream, and lemon juice, and mix until the filling is creamy and smooth.

  2. 4

    Fill the Crusts

    Spoon the cream cheese filling into the cooled crusts, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Topping Preparation

  1. 5

    Add Toppings

    Once the filling has set, top each treat with sliced fresh strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream. Garnish with mint leaves for a refreshing touch.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve chilled and enjoy your individual treats!
