Ingredients
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup fresh raspberries
2 tablespoons freeze-dried raspberries, crushed
12 ounces white chocolate
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 pinch salt
Instructions
1. Place the softened cream cheese into a large mixing bowl and beat until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until fully combined and fluffy.
3. Stir the graham cracker crumbs into the cheesecake mixture until evenly incorporated.
4. Gently fold the fresh raspberries into the filling, being careful not to crush them too much.
5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour until firm enough to handle.
6. Scoop and roll the chilled filling into evenly sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined tray.
7. Freeze the cheesecake balls for 20 to 30 minutes until firm.
8. Melt the white chocolate with the coconut oil in short microwave intervals, stirring until smooth.
9. Dip each cheesecake ball into the melted white chocolate and allow excess chocolate to drip off.
10. Place the coated cheesecake balls back onto the tray and immediately sprinkle with crushed freeze-dried raspberries.
11. Refrigerate the finished cheesecake balls for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use full-fat cream cheese for the creamiest texture and best flavor.
Freeze the cheesecake balls before dipping to help them keep their shape.
Melt the white chocolate slowly to prevent it from becoming thick or grainy.
