Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
Cheesecake Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup strawberry puree fresh or frozen
Crunch Coating
- 1 cup graham crackers crushed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1/2 cup freeze-dried strawberries crushed
- 1 cup strawberry glaze store-bought or homemade
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and strawberry puree until smooth and well combined.
- Refrigerate the cheesecake filling for about 30 minutes to firm up.
- In a separate bowl, combine crushed graham crackers, granulated sugar, melted butter, and crushed freeze-dried strawberries. Set aside.
- Once the cheesecake filling has firmed up, use a small cookie scoop or your hands to form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
- Dip each cheesecake ball into the strawberry glaze, allowing any excess glaze to drip off.
- Roll the glazed cheesecake balls in the graham cracker mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Place the coated bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set before serving.
Notes
For extra strawberry flavor, add a drop of strawberry extract to the filling. These bites can be frozen for up to 1 month—just thaw in the fridge before serving!
