07 - Refrigerate the bites for at least 1 hour until firm and set before serving.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • You get that rich cheesecake satisfaction without the guilt or the hour-long baking time
  • They actually satisfy your sweet tooth while delivering solid protein to power you through
02 -
  • The cream cheese must be genuinely softened or no amount of mixing will save you from grainy filling
  • Let the blueberry compote cool completely before swirling or it will melt into the cheesecake layer instead of creating those pretty ribbons
03 -
  • Use a small cookie scoop to get perfectly portioned bases without the mess of rolling by hand
  • If your filling feels too thick add a teaspoon of milk but go slowly because you cannot take it back
