Perfectly portioned for sharing or individual treats, they offer a refreshing and elegant bite-sized dessert option.


Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted

Toppings

  • 12-16 fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • Additional white chocolate, for drizzling (optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix thoroughly until the crumbs are evenly coated and mixture holds together.
  2. Press crust into molds: Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom of mini muffin tins or silicone molds using the back of a spoon to form a compact crust. Refrigerate for about 15 minutes to allow the crust to set.
  3. Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Whip the cream: In a separate small bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, ensuring a light and airy texture.
  5. Combine mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture carefully, maintaining the fluffy texture throughout.
  6. Add white chocolate: Stir the melted white chocolate chips into the cheesecake filling until fully incorporated and evenly distributed.
  7. Assemble the bites: Spoon the prepared cheesecake filling onto the chilled graham cracker crusts, filling each mold nearly to the top, and smooth the surface with a spatula.
  8. Top with strawberries: Place a slice of fresh strawberry on top of each cheesecake bite for a fresh and visually appealing topping.
  9. Drizzle with white chocolate: Optionally drizzle additional melted white chocolate over the top of each bite for extra sweetness and decoration.
  10. Chill to set: Refrigerate the assembled cheesecake bites for at least 2 hours or until they become firm enough to hold their shape.
  11. Serve: Carefully remove the cheesecake bites from the molds and serve chilled for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • For easier removal, use silicone molds to prevent sticking.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for a smoother filling.
  • Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of powdered sugar or white chocolate.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Feel free to substitute strawberries with other fresh berries or fruit of your choice.
