Mini Pumpkin Cheesecake

I love to make baked goods in jars, like my Pumpkin Cake Jars, Mint Cheesecake Jars, Mocha Cheesecake Jars and now Pumpkin Cheesecake Jars. They're SO easy to take along for desserts in lunches, they don't end up crushed and mangled, they travel really well. And I think the 1/2 pint wide mouth jars make the perfect size lunch dessert. Make these Mocha Cheesecake jars for lunches this week, your people will thank you!

DO I have to make them in a jar

Do you have to make these mini cheesecakes in a jar? No, you can use just about ANY 8-ounce heat-proof baking vessel you have on hand. Small jars just happen to work well for us and we have a lot of them.

You can use a large size muffin pan if it holds 8 ounces. That would probably be a Mega Muffin Pan, you know the Costco size muffins?

What Size of Jar to Use For Cheesecake in Jars

I use wide mouth half pint jars for these, you could do regular mouth if you like. But GET FANCY with other pretty jars like these Weck Jars , aren’t they pretty?

Looking for more pumpkin desserts?? I’ve got them! Since I don’t care too much for Pumpkin Pie, I’m always kind of looking for OTHER seasonal ways to use pumpkin. I like it in cake and cheesecake but also in drinks.

Ingredients

Crust Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham crackers crumbs
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 3 TBSP Sugar

Cheesecake Ingredients

  • 16 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • pinch ground allspice
  • pinch cloves
  • 2 eggs room temperature

Instructions

  • Graham Cracker Crust
  • preheat oven to 325˚
  • mix crumbs, melted butter, and 3 TBSP sugar together and press gently in the bottom of 6 half pint wide mouth jars, set aside
  • Pumpkin Cheesecake
  • mix the cream cheese and the sugar together until well blended, then mix in the vanilla and pumpkin
  • add the eggs one at a time blending well after each addition
  • carefully divide evenly between the six prepared jars, I used a cookie scoop to get the batter in the jar without making much of a mess
  • place jars in a baking pan and place in the oven
  • pour water around the jars about halfway up the jars
  • take out of the oven carefully and remove the jars from the baking pan
  • bake for 30-32 minutes or until the top is set
  • place on a cooling rack

Notes

  • this recipe calls for baking the cheesecakes in wide mouth half pint jars
  • they also need to be baked in a baking pan half filled with water
