Best No-Bake Mini S'mores Cheesecakes With Toasted Marshmallows

Today's share of the best no-bake mini S'mores cheesecakes topped with toasted marshmallows will leave you wanting to lick the screen! Go for it, and then go make your own! Seriously, s'mores cheesecakes are really tasty treats, that keep things portioned so you don't over-indulge. Of course, you might always eat more than one (shhh, I won't tell anyone if you won't!) I'm not sure if it is the rich chocolate ganache or the filling that makes these little bites of heaven, but, I know this, they will disappear if you blink! Really there are 3 different steps to the recipe and none of them take much effort. So, if you ready to let a trifecta of taste (flavors) come together to send you into a foodgasm, this should be your indulgent recipe!
Prepare aluminum baking cups with nonstick spray (as described in my post)
Place each prepared liner into the cupcake pan.
In a small bowl, mix melted butter and graham cracker crumbs.
Drop by the tablespoon into each liner.
Press with (CLEAN) fingers or back of spoon for coverage.
Refrigerate until your batter is ready.
BATTER
In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and vanilla.
Blend.
Next, add in sugar.
Combine.
Microwave large marshmallows for 30 seconds (to soften and then mix to smooth.
Add smoothed marshmallows to the batter.
Mix to combine.
Remove the base layer from the refrigerator to fill.
Scoop and fill each liner but not all the way.
Remember to leave room for the Ganache topping and toasted marshmallows.
Refrigerate again.
GANACHE
In a microwave-safe bowl, place heavy whipping cream.
Microwave to warm, not BOIL.
Remove and add in chips.
Just let it SIT for 5 minutes.
Then stir to blend.
Once blended and thicker (will still be a bit to the runner side), remove filled liners from the refrigerator.
Top each with ganache.
Return to the refrigerator for 1/2 hour.
TOASTED MARSHMALLOWS
Either before your serve or after the 1/2 hours (which is when Ganache should set up a bit more) remove from the refrigerator and top with mini marshmallows.
Generously add mini marshmallows to each filled liner.
Next, place your broiler on low and pay total attention to the toasting process.
As they brown, pull it out of the broiler and allow to cool.
If you want them a bit more 'charred' simply use a lighter and crisp them. (optional)
Serve immediately (with caution to very hot marshmallows) or refrigerate and serve later.
