Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 12-cup mini cheesecake pan with nonstick spray.
In a food processor, pulse the graham crackers until finely ground, then mix in the melted butter. Divide the mixture evenly among the cavities of the cheesecake pan and press firmly into the bottom.
Bake the crusts for 5 minutes until fragrant, then reduce the oven temperature to 325°F.
