For the crust, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl until well combined. Press a tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup.
Next, in a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Bake the cheesecake bites for about 20 minutes or until the centers are set. Let them cool completely before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.
