Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup chopped almonds or walnuts (optional)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and chopped nuts (if using). Mix until the crumbs are well-coated.

    Form the base: Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of a lined mini muffin pan or silicone molds, creating a small crust. Set aside.

      Make the cream cheese filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined and fluffy.

        Add raspberries: Gently fold in the fresh raspberries into the cream cheese mixture, being careful not to crush them too much to retain their shape.

          Fill the crusts: Spoon the raspberry cream cheese filling into each prepared crust, smoothing the tops with a spatula.

            Chill: Place the muffin pan in the refrigerator and let the bites chill for at least 2 hours or until firm.

              Serve: Once chilled, remove the bites from the muffin pan and place them on a serving platter. Garnish with additional raspberries, fresh mint leaves, and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
