Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners and set aside.
Graham Cracker Crust

Add about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into each muffin cup and press it down firmly. Bake the crust for 5 minutes.
Cheesecake Filling
In a separate bowl, whisk the 2 (8-ounce) blocks softened cream cheese and ¼ cup sour cream. Add in the 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and ½ cup sugar. Add in the 2 large eggs and beat until smooth.
Scoop the filling into each crust-lined muffin tin until they are each nearly full.
Bake for 16-20 minutes or until the cheesecakes are set in the middle. Remove from the oven and cool at room temperature.
