1. In a medium bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers, chopped freeze-dried strawberries, and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of each cup, forming a base.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
4. Fold in the diced fresh strawberries into the cheesecake mixture.
5. Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the graham cracker base in each cup, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
6. Refrigerate the cups for at least 2 hours, or until set.
7. Before serving, garnish with additional crushed graham crackers and freeze-dried strawberries for an extra crunch.
Variations & Tips
To add a different flavor, try substituting the strawberries with other fruits like blueberries or raspberries. For a chocolate twist, mix in some mini chocolate chips or swirl in some melted chocolate into the cheesecake mixture. If you’re short on time, use store-bought whipped topping instead of whipping the cream yourself.
