These quick and easy no-bake Cheesecake Balls are made with Caramel Tim Tams and cream cheese, then covered in chocolate… talk about yum!
If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you’ll know that I’m a massive fan of cheesecake balls. First came the Oreo Truffles, then strolled along the yummiest little Mint Slice Balls and now it’s all about the Caramel Tim Tam Cheesecake Balls. OMG. OMG. OMG. I can’t even tell you how much I love these babies. Honestly, whoever thought to combine biscuits with cream cheese and cover them in chocolate deserves a very, very big medal (or at least a very big hug!).
So let me tell you why I love these cheesecake balls so much:
a) they’re made with only 3 ingredients!! Yes 3!!!
b) they’re completely no-bake…. umm awesome!
c) they take about 10 minutes to make (hello Netflix!)
d) they taste ridiculously amazing – just like heaven in a little chocolatey ball
Surely that’s enough reasons, right!?
If you’ve got a food processor, blender or Thermomix, then that’s going to make this recipe even easier for you. If you don’t, you can always use a good old fashioned rolling pin to crush the biscuits. Either way, you’ve got some serious Caramel Tim Tam goodness coming your way.
Oh and if you’re a salted caramel fan (heck yes!), then why not sprinkle a tiny punch of sea salt over the top of the balls just before the chocolate sets. Oh boy, oh boy – salted caramel gets me every single time. If you’re making the cheesecake balls for a kids party, then you really can’t go wrong with a few sprinkles or hundreds and thousands over the top. Everyone loves sprinkles (especially me!).
Ok that’s enough waffle from me today, go and make yourself some super yummy Caramel Tim Tam Cheesecake Balls. Your skinny jeans might not thank you for it, but your tastebuds certainly will!!
