Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 electric mixer or whisk
  • 1 rubber spatula
  • 1 baking sheet
  • 1 parchment paper
  • 1 microwave-safe bowl
  • 1 fork or dipping tools

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries mashed
  • 8 oz white chocolate chopped (for coating)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil optional, for smoother chocolate
  • additional raspberries for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
  • Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, mixing until fully combined.
  • Gently fold in the graham cracker crumbs and mashed raspberries until well incorporated. The mixture should be thick and slightly sticky.
  • Use a cookie scoop or your hands to form the mixture into small balls, around 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Once all the balls are formed, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, allowing them to firm up.
  • While the balls are chilling, melt the chopped white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, microwaving in 30-second intervals and stirring in between until smooth. If desired, stir in the coconut oil to achieve a smoother consistency.
  • Remove the chilled cheesecake balls from the refrigerator. Using a fork or dipping tools, dip each ball into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated.
  • Place the coated balls back on the parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, you can press a small raspberry onto the top of each ball for garnish.
  • Refrigerate again for about 30 minutes to let the white chocolate set.

Notes

Feel free to substitute frozen raspberries if fresh ones are unavailable; just make sure to drain any excess liquid.
For a different flavor twist, try adding a few drops of almond or lemon extract to the mixture.
Store any leftover cheesecake balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy!
