Easy Chocolate Covered Cheesecake Bites Recipe

These cheesecake bites are made with a creamy cheesecake filling, rolled into bite-sized balls, and dipped in chocolate for a delicious finish. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and sets in the refrigerator, making it a convenient dessert option.

Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chocolate chips (dark or milk chocolate)
1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional for smoothness)
Sprinkles or crushed nuts for topping (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Form the Bites: Scoop out small portions of the cheesecake mixture and roll them into balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Chill: Refrigerate the cheesecake balls for about 15-20 minutes to firm up.
Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
Dip the Bites: Remove the cheesecake balls from the refrigerator. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Place back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle with toppings like crushed nuts or sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
Chill Again: Refrigerate the chocolate-covered bites for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.
Serve: Enjoy your chocolate covered cheesecake bites chilled or at room temperature.
