Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

16 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

2 tablespoons lemon juice

Optional: fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

    Assemble the Base: Divide the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of serving cups or small jars, pressing down gently with a spoon to create an even layer.

      Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.

        Add Whipped Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

          Layer the Cheesecake: Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the graham cracker crust in each cup, filling them about 3/4 full.

            Prepare Strawberry Topping: In a bowl, mix the sliced strawberries with lemon juice. Let them macerate for about 10 minutes to bring out their sweetness.

              Top the Cups: Spoon a generous layer of the macerated strawberries over the cheesecake layer in each cup.

                Chill: Refrigerate the cheesecake cups for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the cheesecake to firm up.

                  Serve: Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Enjoy your delightful Strawberry Bliss No-Bake Cheesecake Cups!
