Description
Mini Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake Bites are creamy no-bake desserts with a fruity strawberry flavor and crunchy cookie topping, perfect for parties or casual treats.
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 package (3 oz) strawberry gelatin (Jell-O)
- 1.5 cups whipped topping or whipped cream
- 20 Golden Oreos or vanilla sandwich cookies
- 1/2 cup freeze-dried strawberries
- 4 tbsp melted butter
- Optional: Fresh strawberries for garnish
Instructions
- Crush the Golden Oreos and freeze-dried strawberries into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter until it resembles wet sand.
- Press spoonfuls of the crumb mixture into mini cupcake liners to form crusts. Chill in the refrigerator.
- In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and strawberry gelatin. Mix until combined.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping to keep the filling light and fluffy.
- Spoon or pipe the filling onto the chilled crusts and smooth the tops.
- Sprinkle additional cookie-strawberry crumb mixture over the top for crunch.
- Chill the bites for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
- Garnish with a slice of fresh strawberry before serving, if desired.
Notes
- Use different flavored gelatin like raspberry or cherry for variation.
- Chocolate cookies can replace Golden Oreos for a richer taste.
- Drizzle white chocolate on top for extra indulgence.
- Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
- Let frozen bites thaw in the fridge before serving.
