Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
- ½ cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Crunch Base: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter. Stir until everything is well-coated, resembling wet sand. Pour about a third of this mixture into a lined muffin tin, pressing it down firmly with the back of a spoon.
- Create the Cheesecake Filling: In a separate bowl, whip together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Fold in the Whipped Topping: Gently fold the whipped topping into your cream cheese mixture until it’s well combined.
- Add Strawberries: Toss in those beautiful diced strawberries, mixing gently so they stay whole.
- Assemble the Bites: Spoon the cheesecake filling on top of the graham cracker crusts you created earlier.
- Crunch It Up: Sprinkle the remaining graham cracker mixture over the cheesecake layer to give those bites the crunch they crave.
- Chill: Pop the muffin tin in the refrigerator for at least two hours to let those flavors meld and the bites firm up.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, run a small spatula around the edges to release the bites from the tin, and serve them.
Notes
If strawberries aren’t in season, substitute with blueberries or raspberries. For more flavor, add a splash of lemon juice.
