Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare mini cheesecake pans by spraying or lining them with cupcake liners.
  2. Prepare the Graham cracker crust by pressing crumbs into the bottom of the pans. Bake for about 5 minutes until lightly golden, then cool slightly.
  3. Blend fresh or frozen peach slices in a food processor until smooth. Stir in cornstarch and set aside.
  4. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until creamy. Gradually add sugar, cornstarch, and eggs. Mix in heavy whipping cream and peach puree.
  5. Divide the cheesecake mixture among the crusts and bake for 15-20 minutes until edges are set but centers are slightly jiggly.
  6. Cool cheesecakes in pans for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set completely.
  7. Prepare whipped cream by beating heavy whipping cream with sugar and vanilla. Optionally, fold in gelatin for stability.
  8. Top each cheesecake with peach jam and pipe the whipped cream on top. Chill again briefly before serving.
