Passionfruit Cheesecake Bites - No Bake
These easy No-Bake Cheesecake Bites are made with fresh passion fruit pulp. An easy fruity cheesecake ball recipe perfect for Valentine's Day or Easter.
Ingredients
- 200 g coconut cookies or any butter cookie - see notes for sugar-free
- 1 block cream cheese 250
- 3 passionfruits or 5 to 6 tbsps pulp - see notes
- 1 big pinch salt
- unsweetened shredded coconut for decoration
Instructions
-
In a high-speed food processor, add the biscuits and salt ( and stevia, if using less sweet biscuits) and pulse until broken up into crumb.
-
Add the softened full-fat cream cheese and pulse until just combined.
-
Add passionfruit pulp and pulse until well combined and mixture sticks together in a ball. If the mix is too soft to roll at this point, return to the fridge to firm up.
-
Pick up approx. 1 tablespoon of the cheesecake mixture and roll into small balls. Roll them in coconut and place them directly into an airtight container. Repeat with remaining mixture.
-
Store them in the freezer or fridge.
Recipe Notes
- Use full-fat cream cheese - they are small and they taste so much better if using the good stuff.
- If you cannot find fresh passion fruit pulp, you can use store-bought or frozen. I like this brand here as it tastes super natural, is NOT made from concentrate, has no sugar added, and no added preservatives. A medium passionfruit contains approximately 2 tablespoons of pulp. So you can use 6 tbsps pulp instead of 3 fresh passionfruits.
- If your cookies are not very sweet, you can add some liquid stevia or powdered sugar to the dough.
- To keep your cheesecake bites sugar-free and healthy, use sugar-free cookies. I like these sugar-free coconut banana cookies and make them all the time.
