Description

Delightful No-Bake Gingerbread Cheesecake Cups that are easy to make and perfect for the holiday season.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups crushed gingerbread cookies
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ cup molasses
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)
  • Whipped cream and extra crushed gingerbread cookies for topping

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed gingerbread cookies and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated. Divide the mixture among 4 serving cups, pressing it down to form a crust layer at the bottom of each cup.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground nutmeg, mixing until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
  4. Add the molasses to the cream cheese mixture and fold gently until combined.
  5. Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the gingerbread crust in each cup, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
  6. Refrigerate the cups for at least 2 hours to allow them to set.
  7. Before serving, top each cheesecake cup with whipped cream and a sprinkle of crushed gingerbread cookies. If desired, dust with cocoa powder for an extra touch.

Notes

  • For a spicier flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the cheesecake mixture.
  • Substitute the gingerbread cookies with graham crackers for a different flavor profile, or use gluten-free cookies for a gluten-free option.
