Indulge in Decadent Raspberry Cheesecake Bites with a rich Chocolate Crust Perfect for parties or a sweet treat Easy to make and delicious
1 ½ cups chocolate cookie crumbs½ cup unsalted butter, melted2 cups cream cheese, softened½ cup granulated sugar1 teaspoon vanilla extract1 cup fresh raspberries2 large eggs
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased muffin tin to form the crust. Ensure it’s compact for a sturdy base.Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes, and then allow it to cool while preparing the filling.In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth.Add sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, continuing to mix until fully incorporated.Gently beat in the eggs, one at a time, until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix.Fold in fresh raspberries delicately to retain their shape, ensuring they are evenly distributed.Pour the cheesecake filling generously over the cooled chocolate crusts, filling each cup about three-quarters full.Bake in the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.Remove from the oven and let the bites cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.Once cooled, place the cheesecake bites in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours (or overnight for best results).Before serving, add any garnishes you prefer, like chocolate drizzle or mint leaves.Carefully remove the bites from the muffin pan and serve on a platter, enjoying the lovely presentation of these treats. - Prep Time: 20 minutes
