Step by Step Instructions
Step by Step Instructions
Mix ingredients
In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese, sugar free sweetener and lemon juice until combined and smooth. Set aside.
Whip heavy cream
In a separate medium bowl, whip heavy cream using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
Combine the ingredients
Carefully fold ⅓ the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until combined. Then fold in the remaining whipped cream. Don’t overmix.
Lay on baking tray
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop 1 inch balls of cream cheese filling and place on a parchment lined baking tray. Place in the freezer for 1-2 hours or overnight to harden.
Melt chocolate chips
Once hardened, melt chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl at 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until melted or melt using the double boiler method.
Dip the balls in chocolate
Using a fork, dip each cream cheese ball into the melted chocolate and place the ball back on the tray to cool. If balls start to get too soft to dip, put them back in the freezer for several minutes to harden. Once all the balls are coated, put back in the refrigerator or freezer to harden for 10 minutes. Store cheesecake bites in the refrigerator or freezer.
