Sadly, I tend to eat this St. Patrick’s Day Irish cream mini cheesecake recipe faster than a normal cheesecake recipe. The combination of the Irish cream and the bite sized pieces spell disaster for me. Enjoy!

st patricks day irish cream mini cheesecake

Ingredients

  • 24 oz softened cream cheese
  • 3/4 cup + 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 3 Tbsp butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup Baileys Irish cream
  • green candy decorations

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Mix together the graham cracker crumbs, 2 Tbsp sugar, and melted butter. Press a small amount of crumbs into each mini muffin.

Beat cream cheese and 3/4 cup sugar in a large bowl until well blended. Add eggs one at a time until well mixed. Next add the vanilla and Baileys. Using a small spoon, spoon cream cheese into the mini muffin pan.

Bake 25-30 minutes. Remove mini cheesecakes from the oven and place on a wire rack. Cool completely. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 2 hours.

Chill your KitchenAid bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for about 10 minutes. In the bowl, place 1 Tbsp sugar and whipping cream. Mix until the cream forms stiff peaks. Pipe whipped topping onto each mini cheesecake and decorate as desired.
