Ingredients
- 1 cup lightly crushed shortbread cookies
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 5 tablespoons granulated sugar
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 3 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 5 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups finely diced strawberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pulse the cookies, almonds, butter and 3 tablespoons granulated sugar in a food processor until finely ground. Spray 6 cups in a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. Press the crumbs on the bottom and up the sides of the cups. Bake until golden, about 10 minutes.
- Heat the chocolate in a large bowl in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until just melted. Add the confectioners’ sugar, cream cheese and heavy cream, and beat on medium-high speed to combine with an electric mixer. Spoon into the muffin cups and refrigerate until set, about 20 minutes.
- Toss the strawberries with the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until syrupy, about 15 minutes. Remove the cheesecakes from the muffin tin and serve topped with the strawberries.
