Strawberry Cheesecake Bites

Strawberry Cheesecake Bites

These mini strawberry cheesecake bites are a cute two-bite dessert. Stuffed with a cream cheese filling, they can be prepared the night before — but not much earlier than that, as the berries may become soggy.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 12 large fresh strawberries
  • 2 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate (Optional)
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil (Optional)

Directions

Step 1
Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Place graham cracker crumbs into a shallow bowl.

Step 2
Beat cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla in a bowl until smooth. Spoon mixture into a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.

Step 3
With a sharp paring knife, cut a cone shape out of the top of each strawberry to leave a small hollow. Pipe about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese filling into each strawberry, making sure the filling overflows a bit out of the top of the strawberry. Hold each strawberry upside down to dip filling into crumbs until coated.

Step 4
Melt chocolate and canola oil in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until warm and smooth, 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave).

Step 5
Dip strawberry tips into melted chocolate, then place onto the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate until set.
