1 1/2 cups crushed gingerbread cookies
02 -
1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
→ Filling
03 -
16 ounces softened cream cheese
04 -
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

1 teaspoon ginger powder

1/2 cup fresh whipped cream
# How to Make It:
01 -
Mix the gingerbread cookie crumbs with the melted butter in a bowl until everything looks like damp sand.
02 -
Using a large bowl, whip the softened cream cheese together with the confectioners' sugar until you get a smooth, lump-free mixture.
03 -
Stir in the ginger powder, cinnamon powder, and vanilla flavoring into your cream cheese mix. Make sure to blend well so the spices spread evenly.
04 -
Carefully fold the whipped cream into your spiced cream cheese mixture. Don't overmix - you want to keep it fluffy and light.

Put equal amounts of the crust mix into four serving cups and press down lightly to form a solid bottom. Then add the cheesecake filling on top of each crust layer.
