# What You Need:
→ Batter
01 -
25 ounces strawberry-flavored cake mix
02 -
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
→ Coating
03 -
12 ounces pink candy wafer melts
04 -
4 ounces white almond bark, melted for optional drizzle
# How to Make It:
01 -
Transfer the dry strawberry cake mix into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave at 30-second intervals, stirring between each, for a total of 1 minute. Allow to cool completely before further use.
02 -
In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese using a hand mixer on medium-high speed for 2 to 2½ minutes until smooth and creamy.
03 -
Add the heat-treated, cooled cake mix to the cream cheese. Mix thoroughly until fully incorporated and no dry streaks remain.
04 -
Cover the mixture securely and refrigerate for 2 hours to firm.
05 -
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
06 -
Place pink candy wafer melts in a heatproof bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted.
07 -
Portion the chilled mixture and roll into small balls. Dip each ball into the melted candy coating, ensuring even coverage. Use a fork to lift each bite, allowing excess coating to drip off, and transfer to the lined baking sheet. Use a toothpick to assist in releasing the bites and clean the bottoms as needed.
08 -
Heat white almond bark in a small microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until fully melted. Using a spoon or small dipper, drizzle thin lines of melted almond bark over the coated cheesecake bites.
09 -
Return all finished bites to the refrigerator to set completely until ready to serve.
