Description

Delightful bite-sized treats that combine creamy cheesecake with a crispy coating, perfect for parties.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cotton candy flavoring or cotton candy syrup
  • 1 cup whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup crushed graham crackers or vanilla cookies
  • 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup cotton candy crunch sprinkles or pastel candy bits

Instructions

  2. Add powdered sugar and cotton candy flavoring, mixing until fully combined.
  3. Gently fold in the whipped topping using a spatula until light and airy.
  4. Refrigerate the filling for 30–45 minutes until firm enough to scoop.

  6. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
  7. In a shallow bowl, combine crushed crackers, coconut, and cotton candy crunch.
  8. Roll each cheesecake ball in the coating, pressing gently so it sticks evenly.
