Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 cup strawberry pudding mix

2 cups milk

1 cup sliced strawberries

1 ripe banana, sliced

Whipped cream, for garnish

Mini chocolate chips or crushed nuts, for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix well until combined. Press this mixture into the bottoms of mini dessert cups or muffin tins to form a crust layer. Set aside.

    Make the cheesecake filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated.

      Whip the cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold this whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully blended and fluffy.

        Layer the filling: Add a layer of the cheesecake mixture over the graham cracker crust in each mini dessert cup. Smooth the surface with a spatula.

          Prepare the pudding: In a medium bowl, whisk together the strawberry pudding mix and milk until thickened. Remove any lumps to ensure a smooth texture.

            Add pudding layer: Spoon a generous layer of the strawberry pudding over the cheesecake layer in each cup. Follow this by layering in slices of fresh strawberries and bananas.

              Top and chill: Use the remaining cheesecake mixture to add a final layer on top. Cover each mini cheesecake with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the cheesecakes are set.

                Serve and garnish: When ready to serve, top each cheesecake with a dollop of whipped cream, fresh strawberry slices, banana slices, and optional mini chocolate chips or crushed nuts for added crunch.
