Description

Creamy, nut-free cheesecake pops made with SunButter, a gluten-free crust, and a rich chocolate shell. Perfect for parties or an afternoon treat.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Cheesecake Base:

    • 8 oz cream cheese, softened (use dairy-free if needed)
    • 1/3 cup SunButter (Sunflower Seed Butter)
    • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
    • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • For the Crust:
    • 1 cup gluten-free graham cracker crumbs
    • 3 tbsp melted butter

For the Chocolate Coating:

    • 1 1/2 cups dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips (dairy-free if needed)
    • 1 tbsp coconut oil

Optional Toppings:

    • Crushed gluten-free cookies
    • Mini chocolate chips
    • Sprinkles (check for gluten-free certification)

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Crust

  1. In a bowl, mix the gluten-free graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until it resembles wet sand.
  2. Press the mixture into the bottom of a parchment-lined 8×8-inch pan. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.

Step 2: Prepare the Cheesecake Filling

  1. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, SunButter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  2. Spread the mixture evenly over the chilled crust. Freeze for 2–3 hours or until firm.

Step 3: Shape the Pops

  1. Once firm, cut the cheesecake into 12 small squares or rectangles. Insert a popsicle stick into each piece. Return to the freezer for 30 minutes.

Step 4: Coat with Chocolate

  1. Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  2. Dip each cheesecake pop into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Quickly sprinkle with toppings before the chocolate hardens.

Step 5: Chill and Serve

  1. Chill the coated pops in the fridge for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Substitute SunButter with peanut butter or almond butter if not avoiding nuts. Use dairy-free cream cheese for a vegan version.
