Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 (21 oz) can cherry pie filling

Fresh cherries and mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust:

    - In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are thoroughly moistened.

      - Distribute the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of serving cups or small jars, pressing down firmly to create an even layer. Set aside.

        Make the Cheesecake Filling:

          - In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

            - Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing well until combined and smooth.

              Add the Whipped Topping:

                - In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, mixing gently to maintain the fluffiness.

                  Layer the Cheesecake:

                    - Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust in each cup, filling them about 3/4 full.

                      - Top each cheesecake cup with a generous spoonful of cherry pie filling.

                        Chill and Serve:

                          - Refrigerate the cheesecake cups for at least 4 hours or until set.

                            - Before serving, garnish with fresh cherries and mint leaves if desired.
