Cheesecake Balls.

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Make the Cheesecake Filling
    • In a bowl, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
    • Stir in crushed graham crackers (and chocolate chips, if using) until it forms a thick dough-like mixture.
  2. Shape the Balls
    • Scoop about 1 tablespoon of mixture and roll into balls.
    • Place on a parchment-lined tray.
  3. Chill
    • Refrigerate or freeze for 20–30 minutes, until firm enough to handle.
  4. Coat the Balls
    • Roll in crushed graham crackers, or dip in melted chocolate to coat completely.
    • If using chocolate, place them back in the fridge for a few minutes to set.

💡 Variations:

  • 🍓 Strawberry Cheesecake Balls: Add 1 tablespoon of strawberry jam to the mix.
  • 🍫 Oreo Cheesecake Balls: Replace graham crackers with crushed Oreos and coat in melted dark chocolate.
  • 🍋 Lemon Cheesecake Balls: Add 1 teaspoon of lemon zest and a touch of juice for a tangy twist.

🧊 Storage:

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 1 month — perfect for make-ahead treats!
