Step-by-Step Instructions
- Make the Cheesecake Bites:
In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. 🍰 Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes, then cut into small bite-sized cubes. - Assemble the Fruit Base:
In a large serving bowl or platter, layer the halved strawberries, green grapes, and red grapes. Try to alternate colors for that beautiful, Pinterest-worthy look! 🍓🍇 - Add the Cheesecake Bites:
Gently mix in or top the fruit with the cheesecake cubes. Be careful not to overmix so they keep their shape. - Add the Crunchy Toppings:
Sprinkle over crushed graham crackers, chopped nuts, and drizzle with caramel sauce and white chocolate. ✨Serve immediately or chill for a few minutes before serving.
Pro Tips:
- Chill longer for firmer cheesecake bites that hold their shape better.
- Nut allergy? Swap peanuts for sunflower seeds or skip them entirely.
- Meal prep tip: Make cheesecake bites a day ahead and store in an airtight container.
