Today I have a gorgeous Easter dessert recipe to share – quick and easy Mini Eggs chocolate cheesecake bites. These fun little Easter desserts are really easy to whip up with very little effort but will impress everyone who tastes them!
Each of these mini chocolate cheesecakes is topped with a mini egg, for a really yummy chocolatey treat that’s perfect for family gatherings over the Easter period. This is a great recipe for kids to try their hand at a few new kitchen skills too – like using a hand mixer and trying out some basic piping skills. Here’s a quick tutorial video for you so you can see just how easy they are to make.
Mini Eggs Chocolate Cheesecake Bites
Ingredients: (makes 18 mini bites)
- 100ml whipping cream
- 200g full fat cream cheese
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 Tbsp cocoa powder
- 50g icing sugar
- pack of 18 ready-made mini tartlet pastry cases
- 18 mini eggs
Method:
Measure the whipping cream into a large clean bowl and whisk until thick and smooth.
Add the cream cheese and whisk, then add the vanilla extract, cocoa powder and icing sugar. Whisk together until well combined and smooth.
Spoon the cheesecake mixture into an icing bag with a large star icing nozzle.
Spread the pastry cases across a plate or tray in a single layer.
Pipe the mixture into the pastry cases, then place the cheesecake bites into the fridge for an hour or so until set.
Top each cheesecake bite with a mini egg.
Serve and enjoy!
Note: Mini Eggs should not be given whole to younger children as they can be a choking hazard. If serving to little ones, split the mini eggs in half before using them to top the cheesecake bites.
