Method
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract using a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Fold in the crushed graham cracker crumbs for a little hidden texture.
- Cover the bowl and place it in the freezer for about 30 to 45 minutes to firm up the filling.
- While the filling is chilling, place the Golden Oreos and freeze dried strawberries in a heavy duty zip top bag. Crush them with a rolling pin to create a mix of fine dust and small chunks.
- Mix the crushed mixture with melted butter and strawberry jam to create a slightly damp, coarse coating.
- Remove the chilled filling from the freezer. Using a small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture into 1-inch rounds and roll them quickly between your palms to smooth them out. If they get too soft, return to the freezer for 10 minutes.
- Roll each cheesecake ball into the strawberry crunch mixture, pressing firmly so the crumbs adhere. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to a month. Thaw partially frozen bites for 10 minutes at room temperature for best texture. Adjust sweetness as needed with more powdered sugar or jam.
