Mini Chocolate-Raspberry Truffle Cheesecakes
- Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups finely crushed graham crackers
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Filling:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 (12 ounce) bag dark chocolate chips
- 1 cup raspberry preserves
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, butter, and cinnamon together in a bowl until well blended. Press mixture evenly into the cups of a mini muffin tin.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 7 minutes. Remove from oven; allow to cool, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Heat cream in the top of a double boiler over low heat until it begins to bubble. Remove from heat. Add chocolate chips; stir until fully melted. Mix in raspberry preserves; stir until dissolved. Allow mixture to cool, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Combine cream cheese and sugar in a bowl; beat until smooth. Blend in eggs 1 at a time using a wooden spoon. Fold in sour cream. Add chocolate-raspberry mixture; mix batter well.
- Pour batter into crust-lined muffin tin, filling cups to the brim. Place tin into a large baking pan; pour in enough boiling water to come halfway up the outside of the muffin cups.
- Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 20 minutes.
- Turn oven off; open oven door halfway and leave cheesecakes, still in the tin, inside to cool for 1 hour. Remove from oven; cool completely, about 1 hour more. Refrigerate until completely chilled, 8 hours to overnight.
