Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bites
Ingredients:
For the Crust:
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
4 tablespoons melted butter
For the Cheesecake Filling:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
½ cup mini chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly.
In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until combined.
Press about 1 teaspoon of the crust mixture into the bottom of each mini muffin cup and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Add the egg and mix until just combined. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
Spoon the cheesecake batter over the crusts, filling each cup about ¾ full.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the centers are set. Let cool completely.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Enjoy chilled!
Tips:
For extra indulgence, drizzle melted chocolate over the bites before serving.
Let the cheesecake bites chill overnight for the best texture and flavor.
