I love making these Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake Bites when I want an easy dessert that still feels special. They are creamy, sweet, and full of strawberry flavor, with no baking required. I usually make them for parties or family gatherings, and they disappear fast every single time.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I like this recipe because it is simple, quick, and doesn’t require an oven. The cheesecake bites are rich and smooth on the inside, while the strawberry crunch coating adds the perfect texture. I also enjoy how easy they are to prepare ahead of time, which makes them ideal for busy days or special events.

Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of Ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup powdered sugar, sifted
1 tsp vanilla extract
1½ cups crushed Golden Oreos
1 cup crushed strawberry-flavored Oreos
4 tbsp melted butter
Optional: pink or red food coloring

Directions

I start by adding the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to a mixing bowl. I mix everything until the texture is smooth and creamy with no lumps.

I then cover the bowl and place the cheesecake mixture in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes so it becomes firm enough to shape.

Once chilled, I scoop out small portions and roll them into bite-sized balls using my hands. I place the balls on a lined baking sheet.

In another bowl, I mix the crushed Golden Oreos, crushed strawberry Oreos, and melted butter until the mixture looks like a crumbly coating.

I roll each cheesecake ball in the strawberry crunch mixture, pressing gently so the coating sticks well. After coating all the bites, I refrigerate them again until they are fully set.

Servings And Timing

I usually get about 18 to 20 cheesecake bites from this recipe.
Preparation time is around 20 minutes.
Chilling time takes about 1 hour total.

Variations

I sometimes dip the cheesecake bites in melted white chocolate before rolling them in the crunch coating for an extra layer of sweetness. I also like using freeze-dried strawberries crushed into the coating for a more intense strawberry flavor. For a chocolate twist, I mix a little cocoa powder into the cheesecake filling.

Storage/Reheating

I store these cheesecake bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. If I want to keep them longer, I freeze them for up to one month and thaw them in the fridge before serving. I never reheat them since they are meant to be enjoyed chilled.

FAQs

Can I Make These Ahead Of Time?

I often make them a day in advance because the flavor and texture improve after chilling overnight.

Can I Use Regular Oreos Instead?

I sometimes substitute regular Oreos, but the strawberry flavor will be less noticeable.

Are These Cheesecake Bites No-Bake?

I like that this recipe is completely no-bake, which makes it perfect for warm days.

Can I Freeze Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake Bites?

I freeze them often, and they hold their shape well when stored properly.

Do I Need A Mixer For This Recipe?

I usually use a hand mixer, but I have mixed everything by hand when the cream cheese is very soft.

Conclusion

I enjoy making Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake Bites because they are easy, delicious, and always a hit. The creamy filling paired with the crunchy strawberry coating makes them hard to resist. This is one of those recipes I come back to whenever I need a reliable and impressive dessert.
