Description

These delicious No-Bake Cheesecake Bites with Chocolate are creamy, sweet, and easy to prepare without any oven use. Cream cheese and butter are combined with graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar to create a smooth cheesecake mixture, which is then chilled, shaped into bite-sized balls, and coated in melted chocolate for a perfect indulgent treat that’s ideal for parties or a quick dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Mixture

  • 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • 4 tbsp butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs, crushed
  • 4 cups powdered sugar

Chocolate Coating

  • 10 oz chocolate chips or almond bark

Instructions

  1. Combine Cream Cheese and Butter: In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and fully combined, creating a creamy base for the cheesecake mixture.
  2. Add Graham Cracker Crumbs: Stir in the crushed graham cracker crumbs thoroughly to incorporate the crunchy texture into the mixture.
  3. Incorporate Powdered Sugar: Gradually add the powdered sugar, about one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  4. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with the cheesecake mixture tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow it to firm up for easier shaping.
  5. Shape the Cheesecake Bites: Scoop the chilled mixture into small balls using a spoon or scoop and roll between your palms to form smooth, round bites. Place the formed balls onto a piece of parchment paper.
  6. Firm Before Dipping: Refrigerate the cheesecake balls for 10-20 minutes to further firm them up before the chocolate coating process.
  7. Melt Chocolate: Melt the chocolate chips or almond bark according to package instructions, ensuring it is smooth and ready for dipping.
  8. Dip Cheesecake Bites: Completely cover each cheesecake ball in the melted chocolate, fully coating it for a delicious outer shell.
  9. Set the Coating: Place the chocolate-coated bites back onto parchment paper and let cool at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens fully.
  10. Store for Best Taste: Keep the finished cheesecake bites refrigerated to maintain texture and flavor until serving.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cream cheese for the best creamy texture.
  • Room temperature ingredients blend better for smoother mixture.
  • Chilling times can be extended if the mixture is too soft to handle.
  • Substitute almond bark with high-quality dark or milk chocolate if preferred.
  • Store cheesecake bites covered in the refrigerator to prevent drying out.
  • Let bites come to room temperature for a few minutes before eating for best flavor and texture.
