No Bake Cheesecake Bites
No bake cheesecake bites are a mini indulgence for your sweet tooth. No baking needed, these little treats are frozen making them perfect for a hot day!
It’s hard to believe it’s the first day of fall! It’s over 80 degrees out, which has me aching for a chilly treat.
Today I made no bake cheesecake bites to indulge in and cool down from the heat!
These little guys are incredibly easy to make since they require no baking. Yes, it’s possible to do that with cheesecake!
And each bite tastes incredible—smooth and creamy cheesecake, a hard chocolate shell and a butter graham cracker crust.
The no bake cheesecake method is quite simple. Simply leave out the eggs and the cheesecake filling is safe to eat on its own!
The graham cracker crust only requires graham crackers, butter and powdered sugar. Those ingredients combined make a delightful buttery crust for the cheesecake to sit on.
The most important steps are to freeze the crust so it sets and then freeze the filling once it’s layered on top. This will make the cheesecake sturdy and easy to cut and eat!
And boy will you want to eat these cheesecake bites. Dipped in melted chocolate, each one delivers a punch.
I love storing these little guys in the fridge or freezer. The fridge keeps them a little softer, while the freezer hardens them making it a melt-in-your-mouth treat.
Pop one in your mouth when you’re craving something sweet and you will definitely be satisfied!

CHOCOLATE COVERED MINI NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE BITES
The first layer of these Chocolate Covered Mini No-Bake Cheesecake Bites is the graham cracker crust. With the right ratio of graham crackers, powdered sugar, and butter, this crust requires no baking and hardens quickly in the freezer. The second layer is the cheesecake. I omitted the eggs, which means no baking necessary! The sugar and vanilla make the rich cream cheese perfectly sweet. Lastly, the third layer is a simple dip into melted chocolate. Since the cheesecake is chilled in the freezer, the bite-sized pieces keep their shape as the chocolate coats the tops.
The primary reason I love these Chocolate Covered Mini No-Bake Cheesecake Bites is for their bite-sized appeal. You can just pop a mini cheesecake bite in your mouth and the sweet-tooth cravings are instantly satisfied. I suggest storing the cheesecake bites in the refrigerator, but the freezer is also a good place. Frozen treats are great after a busy day when you’re craving a melt-in-your-mouth treat.

- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on top of the chilled graham cracker crust. Freeze for two hours.
- Transfer the frozen cheesecake onto a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut 1-inch-wide strips vertically then horizontally, creating mini cheesecake bites.
- Place cubes on a tray lined with parchment paper and keep cold in the refrigerator while you melt the chocolate.
- In a medium bowl, microwave the chocolate for 90 seconds, stopping to stir every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth.
