Step-by-Step Instructions for Making Sweet Potato Cheesecake Mini Pies
Step 1: Prepare the Sweet Potato
- Cook the Sweet Potato: Peel and dice one medium sweet potato. Boil it in water for about 15 minutes, or until tender.
- Mash the Sweet Potato: Once softened, drain the water and mash the sweet potato until smooth. Set aside to cool.
Step 2: Make the Graham Cracker Crust
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Create Crust Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and ¼ cup sugar. Pour in the melted butter and mix until the crumbs are moistened.
- Form Mini Pie Crusts: Line a standard muffin tin with cupcake liners. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the crust mixture into each liner and press firmly to form an even crust base.
- Bake the Crusts: Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes to set. Remove from oven and let them cool slightly.
Step 3: Prepare the Sweet Potato Cheesecake Filling
- Beat Cream Cheese and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and ½ cup sugar until smooth and creamy, using an electric mixer.
- Add Sweet Potato and Eggs: Add the mashed sweet potato and eggs, one at a time, blending until well combined.
- Incorporate Remaining Ingredients: Add the sour cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix on low speed until everything is fully incorporated.
