Hershey Bar Cheesecake Tarts
Ingredients:
– 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
– 1/4 cup sugar
– 1/2 cup butter, melted
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup sugar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 2 eggs
– 1/4 cup sour cream
– 2 Hershey’s milk chocolate bars, chopped
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press about a tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner to form the crust.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated.
4. Gently fold in the chopped Hershey’s milk chocolate bars, reserving some for topping the tarts later.
5. Spoon the cheesecake filling onto the prepared crusts, filling each cup almost to the top. Sprinkle the remaining chopped Hershey’s chocolate on top of each tart.
6. Bake the tarts in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set. You can test this by gently shaking the pan – the center should be slightly jiggly but not soupy.
7. Once baked, remove the tarts from the oven and allow them to cool in the muffin tin for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. For best results, chill the tarts in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving. This will help them set and enhance the flavors.
These Hershey Bar Cheesecake Tarts are the perfect combination of creamy, chocolatey, and oh-so-delicious. Whether you’re hosting a gathering or simply treating yourself, these mini delights are a great way to indulge your sweet cravings. Enjoy these tarts with a cup of hot cocoa or a dollop of whipped cream for a truly decadent dessert experience!
