Instructions
Creating these delicious Frozen Strawberry Cheesecake Bites is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Add the melted butter and stir until combined. The mixture should resemble wet sand.
2. Press into Molds: Spoon the mixture into the bottom of mini silicone muffin cups or a small baking dish. Press firmly down using the back of a spoon to create a compact crust.
3. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing well until creamy.
4. Fold in Strawberries and Whipped Cream: Gently fold the diced strawberries and whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture until evenly combined for a smooth texture.
5. Fill the Crusts: Spoon the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in each muffin cup, filling them nearly to the top.
6. Freeze: Place the filled molds in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours or until the cheesecake bites are firm and completely frozen.
7. Remove from Molds: Once frozen, gently pop the cheesecake bites out of the molds. If using a baking dish, cut into squares.
8. Serve or Store: Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks.
These steps will guide you flawlessly through the process of making these irresistible bites.
