Step 4: Air Fry the Cheesecake Bites
- Place the filled molds gently into the air fryer basket. Make sure they are not touching each other to allow proper air circulation.
- Cook for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly.
- Carefully remove the molds and allow the bites to cool to room temperature. The residual heat will finish setting the cheesecake.
Step 5: Chill for the Perfect Texture
- Transfer the cheesecake bites to the refrigerator and chill for at least 1–2 hours. Chilling is key to achieving that creamy, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
- Once chilled, gently remove the bites from the molds.
- Decorate with your favorite toppings, such as berries, chocolate drizzle, or powdered sugar.
- Serve as a delightful snack, party treat, or quick dessert after dinner.
Tips for Success
- Avoid overfilling: Leave a little space at the top of the mold; cheesecake rises slightly while cooking.
- Use silicone molds: They make it easier to remove the bites without cracking.
- Room temperature ingredients: Using room temperature cream cheese ensures a smooth, lump-free batter.
- Optional crust variation: Try crushed cookies like Oreos or shortbread for a fun twist.
