Directions:
1. Prepare the Crust:
In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a mini muffin tin or silicone mold to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
2. Make the Peanut Butter Cheesecake Filling:
In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the whipped topping or whipped cream until fully incorporated.
3. Assemble the Cheesecake Bites:
Spoon the peanut butter cheesecake filling over the chilled crusts, filling each cup to the top. Smooth the tops with a spoon or spatula.
4. Garnish and Chill:
If desired, drizzle with melted chocolate and sprinkle with chopped peanuts or mini chocolate chips for added texture and flavor. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
Carefully remove the cheesecake bites from the tin or mold. Serve chilled, and enjoy the creamy, peanut buttery goodness!
