Chocolate Strawberry Stuffed Cheesecake

These are really delicious, easy to assemble, and you can make them ahead, keep them in the freezer and pop them out just before serving.  Your dessert will be a hit, and they're sure to be a favorite.

Making them takes a bit of time, but it isn't difficult.

You'll start off by making chocolate covered strawberries like you usually would. Then, you'll make a graham cracker crust, and lastly a cheesecake mixture.

It's like your typical cheesecake but it's tiny and cute and filled with a chocolate covered strawberry!

Cheesecake Tips

The most important tip: always use room temperature cream cheese. Leave it sitting out for at least an hour before making your dessert.

How to fix a crack: heat a knife under hot water and spread over the crack. This melts it a bit so you can reform it. If all else fails it's a great opportunity to add chocolate or caramel sauce!

These Chocolate Strawberry Stuffed Cheesecake make an absolutely stunning dessert that tastes delicious. A tiny little dessert that everyone loves.
