Ingredients
Scale
Cheesecake Filling
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
Toppings and Coating
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: Crush graham crackers into fine crumbs to create the base for the cheesecake mixture.
- Make the cheesecake filling: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy, then fold in the graham cracker crumbs evenly.
- Shape the bites: Roll the cheesecake mixture into 1-inch balls, ensuring they are compact. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Chill the bites: Freeze the cheesecake balls for 30 minutes until they become firm and easier to dip.
- Coat with chocolate: Dip each chilled cheesecake bite into the melted semi-sweet chocolate, coating thoroughly. Immediately sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top before the chocolate sets.
- Set the coating: Place the coated bites back on the parchment-lined sheet and refrigerate for 15 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden completely.
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth filling.
- Use parchment paper to easily remove the bites after chilling and dipping.
- You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate with dark or milk chocolate based on preference.
- Store cheesecake bites in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
- For a decorative touch, drizzle additional melted chocolate on top instead of mini chips.
