Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
Coating
- 1 cup cookie crumbs (such as graham cracker or shortbread)
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the finely chopped strawberries until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Form the bites: Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, portion the cream cheese and strawberry mixture into small, bite-sized balls. Place them onto a parchment-lined tray.
- Prepare the coating: In a separate bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with melted butter and mix thoroughly until the crumbs are moistened and hold together when pressed.
- Coat the bites: Roll each cream cheese and strawberry ball in the cookie crumb mixture until fully coated on all sides, creating a crunchy exterior layer.
- Chill: Place the coated cheesecake bites in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving.
Notes
- Use full-fat cream cheese for best taste and texture.
- For an extra crunch, toast the cookie crumbs lightly before mixing with butter.
- These bites can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Substitute strawberries with raspberries or blueberries if desired.
- Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened for smooth mixing.
