Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced or pureed

Crunch Topping

  • 1 cup crushed graham crackers
  • 1 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and ensure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing and a smooth texture.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and diced or pureed strawberries. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well blended.
  3. Prepare the Crunch Topping: In a separate bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and salt until the mixture resembles wet sand, providing that signature crunch.
  4. Layer the Bites: Spoon the cheesecake filling into mini muffin tins lined with paper liners, filling each about 3/4 full to allow space for the topping.
  5. Add the Crunch: Sprinkle the graham cracker mixture evenly over each cheesecake layer, pressing down slightly to help it adhere firmly.
  6. Chill Time: Refrigerate the filled muffin tin for at least 2 hours to allow the cheesecake bites to set properly and develop their flavors.
  7. Serve & Enjoy: Once set, carefully remove the cheesecake bites from the muffin tin and enjoy these creamy, crunchy treats.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth mixture and easier blending.
  • For a stronger strawberry flavor, puree the strawberries before mixing.
  • Use fresh strawberries for best texture and taste, but frozen thawed berries can be used in a pinch.
  • These bites are best served chilled and can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For added texture, consider sprinkling chopped nuts on top of the crunch layer.
