Delicious and easy-to-make no-bake peanut butter cheesecake bites with a graham cracker crust, creamy filling, and optional toppings. Perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth!
Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Peanut Butter Cheesecake Filling:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whipped topping or whipped cream
Topping (optional):
- Melted chocolate for drizzling
- Chopped peanuts
- Mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Make the Crust: In a medium-sized bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press the mixture into the bottom of a mini muffin tin or silicone molds, creating an even layer for each mini cheesecake. Place the tin in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling.
- Prepare the Peanut Butter Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the whipped topping or whipped cream until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Assemble the Cheesecake Bites: Remove the crusts from the fridge and spoon the peanut butter cheesecake filling onto each crust, smoothing the tops with a spatula. Return the bites to the fridge and let them chill for at least 1 hour to firm up.
- Add Toppings: Once the bites are set, drizzle them with melted chocolate and sprinkle with chopped peanuts or mini chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.
- Serve and Enjoy: Gently remove the cheesecake bites from the muffin tin or molds and serve chilled. These are best enjoyed cold!
Notes
For added flavor, consider mixing in chocolate chips into the cheesecake filling.
