Preparation
- In a medium bowl, combine crushed gingerbread cookies with melted unsalted butter. Mix until the crumbs hold together. Divide evenly into serving cups, pressing down firmly to form a compact crust.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. Add vanilla extract, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground cloves, mixing until well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until it reaches stiff peaks. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture.
- Spoon or pipe the gingerbread cheesecake filling into each cup over the prepared crust. Smooth the tops for a polished look.
- Cover the cheesecake cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
- Before serving, top each cheesecake cup with whipped cream, crushed gingerbread cookies, and mini gingerbread cookies. Dust with ground cinnamon.

Notes
For a vegan-friendly option, substitute heavy cream with dairy-free whipped cream and use coconut oil in the crust. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
