Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cheesecakes
Many people say cheesecake is one of the hardest things to make. With my recipe, they don’t have to be! I’ve gone through so many recipes and techniques that I’ve nailed down what makes them great. These cheesecakes are among my favorite things to cook (and eat), as they’re not only delicious but impossibly cute. Take them to your next potluck or office party to impress the pants off your friends!
Okay, jokes aside these are still very tasty. One thing you’ll learn about me is that I’m very, very, very picky about my cheesecakes. Some people love the dense, creamy, practically a block of cream cheese type of cheesecakes. And that’s great! More cheesecakes for them. I, on the other hand, prefer the dry, airy bit of the cheesecake.
INGREDIENTS
FOR THE CRUST:
1 c. graham cracker crumbs
4 TB unsalted butter, melted
1/4 c. granulated sugar
pinch of salt
FOR THE FILLING:
16 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
2 eggs, whites and yolks separated at room temperature
3/4 c. granulated sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
dash of granulated sugar
ASSEMBLY AND TOPPING:
cupcake/muffin liners
melting chocolate
strawberries

Place cupcake liners in a muffin tin and begin dropping rounded Tablespoons of the graham cracker mixture into each liner. Press the crumbs into the bottom of the liner lightly, creating a crust. There may be some crumbs left over.
- Pre-bake for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven and reduce temperature to 350°F.
