Ingredients

Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
  • 12 bite-size peanut butter cups

Filling:

  • 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract or almond extract
  • 2 eggs

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place a paper cupcake liner in each cup of a standard muffin pan.

To make crust, in a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter until crumbs are moistened. Press crust into bottom of each muffin cup. Put 1 peanut butter cup into the center of each crust.

Beat cream cheese with a handheld electric mixer until fluffy. Add sugar, flour, and vanilla, beating well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Spoon cream cheese mixture over peanut butter cups and graham cracker crusts. Bake until just set, about 20 minutes. Allow to cool completely before serving.

    Easy, versatile and DELICIOUS!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This is my go to party cheesecake recipe. It does make a lot -- I use the mini muffin tins and I get 48 - but there are... never any leftovers. I substitute mini nilla wafers for the homemade crust (they fit perfectly at the bottom of the tin and are great in no time at all!) I also usually skip the candy center depending on the crowd. I've done these plain with fruit topping on top, mini oreos for the "crust" with some more crushed on top...you can't go wrong. They come out perfect every time! (A water bath does help keep them from sinking in the middle -- but I usually opt to put something on top to hide any imperfections instead).Read more

    Easy, quick, and popular

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This recipe is a recipe I always fall back on. Not only is the recipe and easy, but it's definitely a crowd pleaser. Plus it... tastes delicious! I have also stuck other candy bars in the middle for fun. It is just all around a great recipe.Read more

    This is the best dessert for an appetizer party!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This is the best cupcake to bring to any party! I did not have regular graham crackers so I used chocolate graham crackers... and it was a fabulous substitution! Everyone commented on how delicious it was! The tops sink in after you bake them, so I think I would have added a little whip cream or a berry on top to make them look more appealing! But, they taste divine!Read more

    EXCELLENT! I WILL MAKE THIS RECIPE AGAIN AND AGAIN!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made this recipe and it was a real hit!!! I used jumbo cupcake cups and baked them on a cookie sheet rather than in a... cupcake pan. I was left with 15 delicious cupcakes! I did not have any batter left over (as other reviewers commented about), but I did have leftover graham crackers. I used chocolate graham crackers. The next time I make this dessert, I will use 3/4 cups to 1 cup of crust, not 1 1/2 cups. I also used regular sized reese's peanut butter cups. I put a generous layer of crust in a cupcake cup, covered it with a thin layer of batter and then placed the peanut butter cup on top. I then added additional batter to cover the peanut butter cup. The cupcake was moist and delicious!Read more

    Very Tasty...and Super Easy, my 12 year old did it!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I'll have to agree with most of everyone else. She made the first 24 in mini muffin pans, and with the left over crust and... batter, I made, I think 9 reg. muffin size cheesecakes, without the candy in them. Everyone loved them. My sister is having cupcakes for thier wedding...I told her about this and she is going to try it out.Read more
