2/3 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2/3 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 Fahrenheit.
  2. Stir together the chocolate graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter.

  5. Add sugar and beat until light and fluffy.
  6. Add egg and vanilla and beat until creamy.
  7. Stir in the sour cream.
  8. Equally divide cheesecake filling among the 18 muffin cups, spooning about 2 tablespoons of filling into each. 
  9. Bake on the middle rack in the oven for 15-18 minutes until the cheesecakes no longer look wet, but the center still jiggles.
  10. Remove and set on a cooling rack.
  11. Allow to cool for about an hour.
  12. Combine chocolate and heavy whipping cream in a small glass measuring cup. 
  13. Heat in the microwave on high power for 40 seconds.
  14. Let the cup sit in the microwave for 3 minutes then remove and stir until melted. 
  15. If needed, heat for 10 more second bursts of power, stirring after each until melted. 
  16. Allow this chocolate ganache to cool until slightly thickened. 
  17. Pour into a pastry bag or squeeze bottle fitted with a #3 round tip. 
  18. Pipe two eyes, two nostrils, and a mouth onto each cheesecake to make them look like Jack Skellington.
