Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine room temperature cream cheese and sugar. Blend until smooth and creamy—about 2 minutes.
  3. Add vanilla extract and sour cream to the mixture, mixing until well combined.
  4. Gently add eggs one at a time, mixing lightly to keep the texture airy.
  5. In another bowl, mix crushed graham crackers and melted butter until the mixture is well combined.
  6. Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of mini cupcake liners in the muffin tin.
  7. Pour cheesecake filling into each crust, filling about three-quarters full.
  8. Bake for about 20 minutes or until the centers are set but still slightly jiggly.
  9. Let cool in tin for 10 minutes, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  10. Before serving, sprinkle red and green sprinkles on top of each cheesecake.
