Instructions
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix thoroughly until moistened and press firmly into the bottom of your mini cheesecake pans.
Bake the crusts for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Let them cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the soft cream cheese until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla, mixing until there are no lumps.
In a separate bowl, blend heavy cream, finely ground pistachios, instant coffee, and salt until well combined. Fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
Spoon the filling over the cooled crusts and smooth the tops.
Bake the cheesecakes for 15-18 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Before serving, sprinkle crushed pistachios on top.
Notes
Use fresh ingredients for optimal flavor. Be careful not to overbake the cheesecakes for a creamy texture.
