Mini Mocha Cheesecakes

If you’re in the mood for a fruit cheesecake instead, try these mini strawberry cheesecake bites – cute and delicious! This Key Lime Margarita Pie is so good as well. I have a variety of awesome dessert recipes to try. Dig in!

Cheesecake doesn’t have to be ordinary, proof is in these Blueberry Cheesecake Popsicles! This recipe also takes this classic treat up a notch.

For myself, one of the most best flavours of the Winter season is MOCHA. Not just because I love coffee either, it’s a classic taste that I just can’t resist, it’s so comforting.

These adorable Mini Mocha Cheesecakes are so simple to make, and very delicious. They actually have just a bit of instant coffee in the cheesecake batter, and some cocoa in the topping – so this recipe isn’t an intense mocha flavour – it’s just right.

There are many ways to make cheesecake, and this particular one is very easy,I’d consider it a no-fail cheesecake recipe.

Mini Mocha Cheesecakes feature a cool whip frosting, my favourite! I’ve mentioned previously just how much I adore a cool whip topping, it’s light and not too sweet.

Simply pipe the frosting onto the top {I dipped my own coffee beans in melted chocolate instead of buying them}, and you have a beautiful dessert that impresses in looks as much as it does the taste. These also have a nice cookie crust on the bottom!

Of course no gathering of loved ones is complete without dessert, and cheesecake recipes are a fan-favourite! From New York style cheesecakes and strawberry cheesecakes to Tiramisu cheesecakes – check out the other cheesecake recipes at the link.
