Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. Prepare the crust by pressing graham cracker crumbs and melted butter into the bottoms of the liners.
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and vanilla extract; mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold this into the cream cheese mixture.
Add green food coloring and mix until evenly colored.
Spoon the cheesecake mixture into muffin tins over the crust.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Decorate with red candy hearts or cherries before serving.

Do not rush the chilling process; it’s crucial for the perfect texture. Overmixing can lead to cracks—mix until just combined.
