These strawberry cheesecake bites are one of my favorite easy, snackable frozen dessert recipes, perfect for summer! Check out the video recipe below too.
Why I love these strawberry cheesecake bites
These are bite-sized strawberry cheesecake bites. They are so creamy and decadent. They are also no bake cheesecake bites. Super easy recipe. Frozen cheesecake bites. Which means these are a quintessential summer recipe. They are covered in a chocolate shell. A chocolate magic shell to be precise. You can’t go wrong with a chocolate and cheesecake combo! The cheesecake also incorporates a delightful strawberry and jalapeno spread. Creamy and decadent, with a distinct hint of heat and spicy. Absolutely irresistible!
So yeah, bigger isn’t always better. Just ask these Frozen Jalapeno Strawberry Cheesecake Bites! I love the sweet and spicy combo. From appetizers (like these sweet and spicy pigs in a blanket) to fruit spread (like this sweet and spicy peach relish) and cocktails (spicy margarita made with a spicy jalapeno simple syrup) and more frozen treats (like these spicy pineapple popsicles), this is always a fun flavor combination to explore. Which is why I wanted to incorporate this tantalizing flavor combo in a quick and easy summer-worthy snack. The result? These delicious no-bake, chocolate covered, frozen strawberry cheesecake bites. Yup, that’s a mouthful to say, but the recipe is easy, I promise. I’m not sure about you guys, but we are melting in this summer heat these days. There’s an excessive heat warning in place for this week with temperatures around 100°F (38°C), and a heat index that makes your eyes water. So I’ve been fighting the good fight against summer, the only way I know how. By keeping my freezer packed with plenty of yummy frozen snacks! Want some ideas?

Components of these strawberry cheesecake bites
And I’m happy to say that these no bake strawberry cheesecake bites have been an absolute treat. Literally. There’s an oreo cookie that serves as the crust/base. And the cheesecake itself is creamy and decadent with this subtle yet amazing kick that you get from the jalapeno in this strawberry jalapeno fruit & honey spread (which isn’t lost in the cheesecake base!). And then everything is frozen and covered with this super easy chocolate magic shell. The contrast in the flavors and textures is incredible. These frozen strawberry cheesecake bites are easy, delicious, addictive and not only do they serve as a great, better for you snacking solution, but they also make an excellent, crowd-pleasing dessert for a party! Just make sure to make plenty of them, because these bite-sized babies will disappear. Since this spread is made with naturally ripened fruit and sweetened with honey, the fresh flavor of strawberries comes through and is a great change up for spreads made with a lot of sugar. These strawberry cheesecake bites are kid-friendly too. They are basically a whipped base of cream cheese and whipping cream, mixed with chopped strawberries and this beautiful strawberry jalapeno spread, and then frozen in a mini-muffin pan and topped with an oreo. You could even get your kids to help you make these no bake cheesecake bites, from start to finish. But especially with the part where they dip these frozen cheesecake bites in the chocolate sauce and then watch as it immediately hardens into a fun chocolate shell, covering up all that deliciousness inside. 🙂 The hardest part of this recipe? The waiting. A creamy, cool cheesecake center with fresh, fruity sweetness from strawberries, complemented with that subtle hint of spice from the jalapeno! So go ahead and make these frozen strawberry cheesecake bites! There’s just too much goodness in these bite-sized desserts to pass up on them. 🙂
