1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup freeze-dried raspberries, crushed
12 oz white chocolate, melted
1 tbsp heavy cream
Pinch of salt

Instructions

4. Fold in the crushed freeze-dried raspberries while reserving some for garnish.
5. Refrigerate the cheesecake mixture for 1 hour until firm enough to handle.
6. Scoop and roll the mixture into evenly sized balls.

8. Melt the white chocolate slowly until smooth, then stir in heavy cream if needed for a thinner consistency.
9. Dip each cheesecake ball into the melted white chocolate until fully coated.
10. Place the coated balls back onto the parchment paper and immediately sprinkle with raspberry crumbs.
11. Refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes until the chocolate shell is fully set.
12. Serve chilled and enjoy.
Notes
Keep the cheesecake filling cold during the dipping process so the balls maintain their shape and texture.
Melt the white chocolate slowly to prevent it from becoming thick or grainy.
Freeze-dried raspberries work best because they provide concentrated flavor without adding extra moisture.
