Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake BitesIngredients

Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling

1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
2. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue beating until fully combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.

Step 3: Assemble the Cheesecake Bites

1. Remove the crusts from the refrigerator.
2. Using a small spoon or piping bag, fill each crust with the cheesecake mixture, smoothing the tops with the back of a spoon.
3. Tap the pan gently on the counter to eliminate any air bubbles.

Step 4: Add the Strawberry Crunch Topping

1. In a small bowl, combine the crushed freeze-dried strawberries and crushed graham crackers.
2. Sprinkle a generous amount of this mixture on top of each cheesecake bite.
3. Drizzle melted white chocolate over the top for an optional touch of elegance and sweetness.

Step 5: Chill and Serve

1. Place the tray in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the cheesecake bites are firm.
2. Once set, remove the paper liners (if desired) and serve immediately.

• Crunch Variation: For extra texture, you can add chopped nuts or toasted coconut to the topping mix.
• Strawberry Substitute: Fresh strawberries can also be used, but freeze-dried strawberries provide a more concentrated crunch and flavor.
