Preparation

  3. Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator and let the crust chill for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Beat the cream cheese on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Gradually mix in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
  6. Whip the heavy whipping cream in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form.
  7. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula.
  8. Spoon or pipe the cream cheese filling into each muffin cup over the cooled crust.
  9. Cover the muffin tin with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
