How to Make Strawberry Chocolate Cheesecake Cups
1. Prepare the Crust
Mix your crushed chocolate cookies or graham crackers with melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of each serving cup to form a firm, crunchy base.
2. Make the Cheesecake Filling
Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add a few drops of strawberry flavour concentrate and a hint of white chocolate flavour if you like. Mix gently until everything is fully combined.
3. Add the Chocolate Layer
Melt your chocolate with a splash of cream until smooth. Layer over the cheesecake filling for a rich, decadent touch.
4. Top with Whipped Cream and Decorations
Pipe or spoon whipped cream on top. Sprinkle with chocolate shavings, freeze-dried strawberry crumbs, and finish with a fresh strawberry slice if desired.
5. Chill & Enjoy
Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving. Your cheesecake cups will set beautifully and taste even more indulgent after chilling.
