Cheesecake Bites
Cheesecake bites are nothing more than little chocolate-covered morsels of creamy cheesecake. No special equipment and no water bath needed, since chocolate covers any cracks. SO good!
INGREDIENTS
For the crust
- 1 1/2 cups (225 g) gluten free cookie crumbs (I used my “Nabisco” GF Honey-Maid Grahams, from Classic Snacks)
- 5 tablespoons (70 g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
For the filling
- 2 8-ounce packages (total: 16 ounces) cream cheese, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar (can reduce to 1/2 cup (100 g) for a less-sweet version)
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons (18 g) cornstarch (or try arrowroot)
- 2 eggs (100 g, weighed out of shell) at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For the chocolate coating
- 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
- 2 tablespoons (28 g) virgin coconut oil (or vegetable shortening)
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat your oven to 325°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with overhung, crisscrossed pieces of unbleached parchment paper and set it aside.
- Prepare the crust. In a medium-size bowl, place the cookie crumbs and the melted butter, and mix until all of the crumbs are moistened. Place the cookie crumb mixture in the prepared pan and press firmly into an even layer on the bottom of the pan and very slightly up the sides. Set the pan aside.
