2 tablespoons brown sugar

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon lemon juice

3/4 cup heavy cream

1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

Whipped cream and mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

1. In a bowl combine graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter until the mixture clumps together.

2. Divide the crumb mixture evenly among eight cups and press firmly into the bottom of each cup. Chill for 10 minutes.

3. In a large bowl beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth and lump-free.

4. In a separate bowl whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then gently fold into the cream cheese mixture until light and airy.

5. Pipe or spoon the cream cheese filling over the chilled crust in each cup, smoothing the tops with a spatula.

6. Top each cup with mixed fresh berries and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

7. Before serving, garnish each cup with a dollop of whipped cream and a mint leaf.
