Ingredients
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup powdered sugar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 cup crushed graham crackers
– 12 large strawberries
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
– 1 tbsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)
Equipment Needed
– Mixing bowl
– Hand mixer or whisk
– Baking sheet
– Parchment paper
– Microwave-safe bowl
– Toothpicks or skewers
Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly. It’s important to get them completely dry, as any moisture can ruin the chocolate coating later. Next, I whip the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together in a mixing bowl until it’s smooth and creamy—trust me, the smell is heavenly! Once mixed, I fold in the crushed graham crackers until everything is well combined. This creamy cheesecake mixture is what makes these bites so irresistible.
