Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3–5 drops red food coloring

Optional Base or Coating

  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs or pink velvet cake crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature for about 15 minutes. Measure out all ingredients to have them ready for quick and easy preparation.
  2. Beat Cream Cheese and Powdered Sugar: Using a mixer, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy without lumps, forming the cheesecake base.
  3. Whip Heavy Cream with Vanilla: In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form for a light and airy texture.
  4. Combine Mixtures and Add Color: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture to maintain airiness. Add red food coloring drop by drop until achieving the perfect pink hue.
  5. Shape the Bites: Spoon the mixture into small silicone molds or roll into bite-sized balls by hand. For a crunchy coating, roll the bites in pink velvet cake crumbs or graham cracker crumbs mixed with melted butter.
  6. Chill Until Firm: Refrigerate the bites for at least 2 hours to set properly, intensifying flavors and firming the texture before serving.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for smooth mixing without lumps.
  • Whip the cream just until stiff peaks form to avoid grainy texture.
  • Add red food coloring gradually to control the pink shade.
  • Chill thoroughly to help the bites hold shape and meld flavors.
  • Use full-fat cream cheese and fresh whipping cream for best flavor and consistency.
