Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Place softened cream cheese in a medium bowl and beat until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer or whisk.
  • Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined and smooth.
  • Gently fold in fresh raspberries, keeping them mostly intact so the Raspberry Cream Cheese Bites have bursts of fresh fruit flavor.
  • Scoop small portions about 1 inch in diameter using a spoon or melon baller. Roll into balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Freeze the bites for 1 hour, or until firm.
  • In a shallow bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until evenly combined and sandy in texture.
  • Remove chilled bites from the freezer and roll each one in the graham cracker mixture until fully coated.
  • Place coated bites back on the parchment-lined sheet and freeze for another 30 minutes.
  • Before serving, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes for the perfect creamy texture.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a small amount of lemon zest to brighten the raspberry taste.
  • These bites can be served slightly chilled for a firmer texture or softer at room temperature.
  • Perfect for dessert platters or party trays.
