Ingredients
Crust:
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup granulated sugar
3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Filling:
1 packet (2 ½ tsp) E.D.SMITH® Knox® gelatine
¼ cup cold water
1 ½ cups cold 35% fat whipping cream
2 250g (8oz) packages cream cheese, at room temperature (1 lb)
½ cup icing sugar
1 ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt

Directions
1. Spray a silicone muffin tin with non stick cooking spray or line a muffin tray with large liners.
2. In a medium bowl, stir together graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Pour in melted butter and stir with a fork until no dry crumbs remain. Place one heaping tablespoon of crumbs into the bottom of each muffin cup and press into the bottom using a small straight sided glass.
3. Place ¼ cup cold water in a small microwave safe bowl and sprinkle with gelatine, let stand 1 minute. Microwave for 20 seconds on high and stir until gelatine is completely dissolved.
4. Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip cream until stiff peaks form when beaters are lifted. In a separate bowl beat softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy, 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and add gelatine mixture to the cream cheese along with the icing sugar, vanilla and salt. Continue beating until well combined, 2-3 minutes. Fold in whipped cream until well combined.
5. Divide filling evenly over prepared graham cups and chill in refrigerator until set, 3 hours. Remove cakes from molds and top with fresh fruit or your choice of ED SMITH pie filling. We suggest Cherry, raspberry, strawberry rhubarb blueberry or lemon.
