These easy, no-bake cheesecake bites combine creamy peanut butter, rich chocolate, and fluffy cheesecake filling for a nostalgic, crowd-pleasing dessert. Perfect for parties, gifting, or a sweet treat any night of the week.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened (full-fat recommended)
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped to stiff peaks
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • Mini muffin liners or silicone molds
  • Optional: Chopped peanuts, mini peanut butter cups, or flaky sea salt for garnish

Instructions

  1. Line 24 mini muffin cups with liners or lightly grease silicone molds. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy (about 1 minute).
  3. Add peanut butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt. Beat until well combined and fluffy (1–2 minutes).
  4. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream to stiff peaks (2–3 minutes on high).
  5. Gently fold whipped cream into the peanut butter cheesecake mixture with a spatula. Do not overmix.
  6. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth and glossy (about 1 minute total).
  7. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate into each muffin liner, swirling to coat the bottom and halfway up the sides. Freeze for 5 minutes to set.
  8. Drop about 1 tablespoon of cheesecake filling into each chocolate shell. Smooth the tops.
  9. Spoon another teaspoon of melted chocolate over each bite to seal. Tap the pan gently to level the tops. Sprinkle with optional garnishes.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  11. Remove bites from pan or molds and serve cold.

Notes

Use room temperature cream cheese for smooth filling. Coconut oil helps the chocolate shell set snappier. For dairy-free, substitute plant-based cream cheese and whipped cream. Bites freeze well; thaw in fridge before serving. For best texture, chill fully before serving.
