Instructions
Preparation
- Start by beating the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until the mixture is silky smooth.
- Slowly mix in the melted white chocolate, ensuring it blends seamlessly into the cream cheese.
- Add in the crushed graham crackers and raspberry puree, mixing until evenly distributed.
- Roll the mixture into small balls, about one inch in diameter, and lay them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate the rolled balls for at least 1 hour.
Coating
- Melt the remaining white chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring until smooth.
- Dip each cheesecake ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is well-coated, then place them back on the parchment paper.
- Chill the dipped cheesecake balls again until the coating hardens, which takes about 30 minutes.
Notes
To ensure a smooth mixture, start with room temperature cream cheese. Avoid overmixing to prevent dense texture.
