Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Base

  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 8 oz whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs

Blackberry Swirl

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blackberries
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Coating and Decoration

  • 12 oz dark chocolate melting wafers
  • Edible glitter or luster dust (green, gold, or silver)
  • Crushed graham crackers or chopped nuts (optional)
  • Candy eyes or small edible decorations (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Blackberry Swirl: In a small saucepan, combine blackberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the berries break down and the mixture thickens slightly, about 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Mixture: In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Stir in the vanilla extract. Gently fold in the whipped topping until well combined.
  3. Combine with Graham Cracker Crumbs: Mix the graham cracker crumbs into the cheesecake mixture until evenly distributed.
  4. Create the Pops: Spoon cheesecake mixture into popsicle molds or small silicone molds, filling halfway. Add a teaspoon of the cooled blackberry swirl in the center. Fill the rest of the mold with cheesecake mixture and gently swirl with a toothpick to create a marbled effect. Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
  5. Coat the Pops: Melt the dark chocolate wafers according to package instructions. Remove cheesecake pops from molds and dip each pop into the melted chocolate, ensuring full coverage. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
  6. Decorate: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle edible glitter or luster dust for a magical finish. Optionally, add crushed graham crackers, chopped nuts, or candy eyes for extra texture and fun decoration. Place pops on parchment paper and refrigerate until chocolate sets, about 30 minutes.
  7. Serve: Enjoy your Forbidden Forest Blackberry Cheesecake Pops chilled as a stunning and delicious dessert.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh blackberries, but frozen berries work well if thawed and drained.
  • Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the cheesecake mixture.
  • Customize coating decoration to match your party theme or preferences.
  • Store leftover pops in the freezer, individually wrapped, to maintain freshness.
  • If you don’t have popsicle molds, silicone muffin cups with sticks work as an alternative.
