These cheesecake bites have been pinned over 200,000 times on Pinterest, and are one of my most popular bite size treats along with Mini Oreo Cheesecake Bites and Chocolate Covered Cookie Dough.

We get compliments every time we make them! Everyone loves the creaminess of the cheesecake, velvetiness of the chocolate and the fruitiness of the raspberries. This.Is.Amazing!

The best part? They’re so much less work to prepare than traditional cheesecake with no baking required! All you need is an ice cube tray, a brush and six simple ingredients.

How to Make Chocolate Covered Cheesecake Bites

You only need 15 minutes of prep time and an hour of chilling time to make these no bake cheesecake bites.

Step 1: Coat the Ice Cube Tray

Place the semisweet baking chocolate in a small bowl, and it in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring in between until smooth. I don’t recommend using chocolate chips, which can crack after chilling.

Spoon a teaspoon or so of melted chocolate into each ice cube tray cup. I used a standard size ice cube tray, and you may need to adjust slightly if yours is smaller or larger.

Use a brush or your finger to spread the melted chocolate up the sides of each cup to coat. Freeze the ice cube tray for 5-10 minutes until the chocolate coating is hard.

Step 2: Make the Cheesecake

In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla. Here are some tips on how to soften cream cheese quickly if you forgot to take it out of the fridge ahead of time.

Once the cream cheese mixture is smooth, stir in the whipped cream. Your cheesecake is ready 🙂

Step 3: Make the Cheesecake Bites

Fill each ice cube cup about 1/4 full with cheesecake mixture. Then place a raspberry in each cup facing down. Then spread more cheesecake mixture on top to cover the raspberry. It doesn’t matter if it looks messy, since it’ll soon be covered up.

Finally, drizzle melted chocolate on top of the cheesecake to coat completely. Now place the ice cube tray on a level surface in the fridge to chill for at least an hour to firm up.

Step 4: Unmolding the Cheesecake Bites

Remove the ice cube tray from the fridge and invert onto a work surface. Let it sit for 10 minutes and the cheesecake bites should drop out as they warm up.

If they’re sticking for any reason, bang the tray gently on the work surface to help loosen them.

Tips and Secrets for Making Cheesecake Bites

  • Use an ice cube tray with rounded corners for easier unmolding. Rectangular cubes will be difficult to unmold.
  • Use quality baking chocolate like Baker’s or Ghirardelli for the best results. Do not use chocolate chips, which can lead to cracking when unmolding.
  • Make sure you have softened the cream cheese to get an easily spreadable cheesecake mixture. Otherwise it may be too stiff.
  • Allow the cheesecake bites to sit for 10 minutes before unmolding. As the chocolate warms up it becomes easier to unmold.
  • Use light cream cheese for a lighter variation.

Make Ahead Tips

  • You can make these cheesecake bites ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days. You can store for 3-4 days without the raspberries (just pure cheesecake).
  • If you need to store for longer, they freeze well. Seal them in a ziplock bag and store for up to one month.
