SPECIAL EQUIPMENT NEEDED:

To make your cheesecake bites you’ll need a silicone mini muffin pan. Pictured below is the one I use and it’s AWESOME. It’s freezer safe and oven safe so you can use it for baked goods, too! It’s also non-stick and dishwasher safe so clean up is easy. The best part? It’s very affordable (and cute)!

Instructions

Measure cream cheese, peanut butter powder, agave nectar, heavy cream, vanilla extract and salt into a small mixing bowl. Beat ingredients together with an electric mixture on medium high for 2-3 minutes (until smooth), stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula when necessary.
Line a drinking glass with a small Ziploc bag and use a spatula to transfer ingredients into the open baggie. Remove from the glass and zip closed, cut off one corner of the bag at the very tip to create a small opening. (*Note: make sure you cut off only the VERY tip of the bag. you don't want a very big opening. You can go back later and cut a little more if necessary).
Squeeze cheesecake mixture from bag into muffin pan cavities until each one is about two thirds full.
Use a food processor to crush your peanuts into small crumbs. (If you don't have a food processor you can also put your nuts into a Ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin or drinking glass or mince them up with a knife). Melt 2 tablespoons of coconut oil (the remaining ½ tablespoon will be added to your chocolate drizzle) and add it to the peanut crumbs.
Stir peanut and oil mixture until well combined and then fill muffin pan cavities to the top with mixture. (*Tip: it's helpful to stir the peanuts and oil on occasion while portioning out to keep ingredients evenly distributed).
Freeze for 2 hours (or overnight).
Measure chocolate chips and ½ tablespoon of coconut oil into a small, microwave safe bowl and melt.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and pop cheesecake bites out of the muffin pan. Arrange them on the baking sheet and drizzle with chocolate.
Eat immediately or freeze/refrigerate your bites until you are ready to enjoy!

  Peanut butter powder is a great way to get the flavor and to cut the calories. I love my peanut butter, but I've become a fan of peanut butter and chocolate peanut butter powder and use them where ever I can :)
