Directions:

Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners or use silicone molds.
In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press about 1 1/2 tablespoons into the bottom of each liner to form a crust. Chill while preparing the filling.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
Divide a small portion of the batter into 3 bowls. Tint each with a few drops of food coloring.
Spoon the plain filling onto each crust, then drop small dots of colored batter on top. Swirl gently with a toothpick or skewer.
Chill for at least 4 hours or until firm.
