🛠️ Instructions
I. Prepare the Crust (3 minutes)
- Mix: Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Base: Press a spoonful of the mixture into the bottom of 4 to 6 small glasses, jars, or dessert cups. Set aside. (Skip this step if you want to save even more time!)
II. Prepare the Cheesecake Mousse (10 minutes)
- Whip Cream: In a separate, chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.1 Set aside.
- Cream Cheese Base: In a large bowl, use an electric mixer (or whisk vigorously) to beat the softened cream cheese until it is completely smooth and fluffy (no lumps!).
- Flavor: Beat in the powdered sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until the mixture is uniform and creamy. Taste and add more cinnamon or sugar if desired.
- Fold: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula. This step adds air, creating a light, mousse-like texture that sets quickly.
III. Assemble and Chill (2 minutes)
- Layer: Spoon or pipe the cheesecake mousse into the prepared glasses, filling them up.
- Chill: Refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes to allow the mousse to firm up and the flavors to fully meld.
✨ Serving Suggestions
- Garnish with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon, a dust of powdered sugar, or a dollop of caramel sauce.
Enjoy your secret, twice-weekly indulgence!
