No-Bake Chocolate Banana Cheesecake Bites 

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Crust

1. In a medium bowl, mix the chocolate cookie crumbs with melted butter until fully combined.
2. Spoon about a teaspoon of the mixture into each mini muffin cup (or silicone mold) and press down firmly to create an even crust. Place the tray in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to set while preparing the filling.

Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling

1. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the mashed banana, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, beating until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is light and fluffy.
3. Spoon or pipe the banana cheesecake mixture over the chilled crust in each muffin cup, filling each nearly to the top. Smooth the tops with a spatula for a neat finish.

Step 3: Chocolate Drizzle

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil (or butter) in 20-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
2. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cheesecake bites, adding as much or as little as you like.
3. Return the bites to the fridge for at least 2 hours or until firm and fully set.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!

Once the cheesecake bites are set, gently remove them from the mold. Serve chilled for the best texture.

Tips for Perfect No-Bake Cheesecake Bites

• Ripe Bananas Are Key: For a richer banana flavor, use ripe bananas. The natural sweetness enhances the cheesecake layer.
• Use a Silicone Mold: Silicone molds make it easier to pop out the bites without breaking the crust or cheesecake layer.
• Experiment with Flavors: Swap bananas with other fruits or add peanut butter for a delicious twist!
