Vanilla bean crème brûlée cheesecake cupcakes combine the creamy decadence of classic cheesecake with the caramelized sugar crust of crème brûlée, making them a unique and delightful treat. This recipe is perfect for special family gatherings or when you want to impress your friends with a homemade dessert that’s both elegant and comforting. Made in individual cupcake portions, they are easy to serve and just right for satisfying your sweet tooth.
These cheesecake cupcakes are lovely on their own, but you can pair them with fresh berries or a simple fruit compote to add a hint of tartness that complements the rich, creamy flavors.
