Strawberry Cheesecake Strawberry Bites

Delight in these easy Strawberry Cheesecake Strawberry Bites, a quick-to-make, fresh, and flavorful bite-sized dessert combining creamy cheesecake filling with juicy strawberries atop a crunchy graham cracker crust. Perfect for parties or quick indulgences, these treats strike the right balance between sweet and tangy with a beautiful presentation.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter

For the Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Topping

  • 12 fresh strawberries, halved or sliced

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until the mixture holds together when pressed. Press the crust mixture firmly into mini muffin liners or a silicone mold to form thin, even bases for your cheesecake bites.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a bowl, blend cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. This velvety filling delivers the classic cheesecake flavor with each bite.
  3. Assemble the Bites: Pipe or spoon a generous layer of the cheesecake filling over each prepared crust. Smooth the tops gently to create a neat layer that’s ready for the strawberry topping.
  4. Add Fresh Strawberries: Top each bite with a halved or sliced fresh strawberry, pressing them slightly into the filling to secure. The fresh fruit adds brightness and natural sweetness.
  5. Chill to Set: Place the assembled Strawberry Cheesecake Strawberry Bites in the fridge for at least 1 hour to allow the filling to firm up so they hold their shape perfectly when served.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese to achieve a silky, lump-free filling.
  • Choose ripe, firm strawberries for best flavor and appearance.
  • Press the crust firmly to prevent crumbling when picking up the bites.
  • Chill the bites adequately to ensure the cheesecake layer sets properly and is not too soft.
  • Try piping the filling for a neat, professional presentation.
