Frozen No-Bake Double Chocolate Cheesecakes

These individual chocolate cheesecake bites are so delicious. The chewy crust is made out of chocolate cookies, dates and almonds while the cheesecake is smooth, resembling chocolate mousse. It's the perfect combination.

Frozen No-Bake Double Chocolate Cheesecakes

Ingredients

Makes 8 medium individual cheesecake bites

  • 1/2 cup chocolate cookies (such as Newman's Own Alphabet Cookies)

  • 1/2 cup almonds

  • 8 dates, pitted

  • 1 8oz package cream cheese

  • 2 cups powdered sugar

  • 1/4 cup milk

  • 2 tbsp, plus 1 tsp cocoa powder

  • Slivered almonds and chocolate chips for toppings

Directions

  1. In a blender or food processor, blend together the cookies, almonds and dates until combined. The mixture should stick together when pressing it between your fingers. Add more dates if it doesn’t seem sticky enough.

  2. Spoon the crust into silicone molds, or cupcake tins lined with parchment paper or cupcake liners. Pack the crust down using your fingers.

  3. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, then slowly beat in the powdered sugar.

  4. Add the milk and cocoa and beat until smooth.

  5. Spoon the mixture over the crusts.

  6. Freeze the cheesecakes overnight.

  7. Take the cheesecakes out of the freezer a couple minutes before serving to let them soften. Decorate with slivered almonds and chocolate chips.
