Mini Pineapple Upside-Down Cheesecakes

Delightful individual cheesecakes topped with tropical pineapple and drizzled with caramel sauce, perfect for parties.

  • Total Time: 120
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 can (20 oz) pineapple chunks, drained
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter until moist. Press this mixture into the bottom of cupcake liners in a muffin tin to form a crust.
  3. In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and mix until well blended.
  4. Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the crust in each cupcake liner. Top each one with a few pineapple chunks.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set.
  6. Let the cheesecakes cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours. When ready to serve, drizzle caramel sauce over the top.

Notes

Use room temperature cream cheese for easy mixing. For a fun twist, try using different fruits or adding coconut extract.
