How to Make Mint Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bites Freeze Ahead

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini-muffin tin with mini-muffin liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough, and press into the bottom of each mini-muffin cup, creating a small crust.
  3. In a large bowl, beat 1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, beating until combined.
  4. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/8 teaspoon peppermint extract (use a 1/8 teaspoon measuring spoon, or approximately 10 drops). A little goes a long way!
  5. In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
  6. Add 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips and gently fold to combine.
  7. Fill each mini-muffin cup with the cheesecake mixture, leaving a little space at the top.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
  9. Let cool completely in the muffin tin before transferring to a freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
