So, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Cheesecake. But, sometimes the basic pie is just boring, so, why not make them fun? Here is a way to do that!
Start with your favorite cheesecake recipe, (or store bought if you aren't a baker.)
Then you need to cut 2/3 of the crust off, and toss it, you don't want that much mixed in with your balls.
Then you mix the cheesecake all together. Refrigerate for an hour or so. This is to help the balls keep their shape.
I use a cookie baller (basically a mini ice cream scoop) to make these, that way all of them are roughly the same size. With this batch, I did not roll them into balls, i left the the shape that the scoop made them. I was shooting for a "melted snowball" look. Place them on wax paper.
Then freeze them for about 20-30 minutes, otherwise, the stick won't say in!
Melt your chocolate, using the package directions (adding vegetable oil if it is too thick to work with.)
Place your sprinkles in little glass bowls (or you could use cupcake liners.) You will need quick access once you dip these in the chocolate.
Place a stick in the balls, and dip it in the chocolate...decorate IMMEDIATELY. (frozen cheesecake, hot chocolate? it hardens quick!)
Thats it! You have made amazing bite size cheesecakes!
