Ingredients
Scale
Cheesecake Mixture
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup butterscotch syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped topping
Coating & Garnish
- Chocolate or candy melts, for coating
- Wooden sticks for pops
- Golden butterscotch drizzle, for serving
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients to make the Harry Potter Butterbeer Cheesecake Pops, ensuring the cream cheese is softened for smooth mixing.
- Mix Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, butterscotch syrup, and vanilla extract. Beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the whipped topping to keep the mixture light and fluffy.
- Fill Popsicle Molds: Pour the cheesecake mixture into popsicle molds carefully. Insert wooden sticks into each mold and tap the molds gently to release any air bubbles for an even texture.
- Freeze: Place the filled molds in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until fully set and firm.
- Melt Coating: Once frozen, melt the chocolate or candy melts according to package instructions to prepare for coating.
- Coat the Pops: Dip each cheesecake pop into the melted chocolate or candy melts. Allow the excess coating to drip off before placing them onto a parchment-lined tray.
- Garnish and Serve: Drizzle the pops with golden butterscotch syrup for extra flavor and a beautiful finish. Serve immediately or keep refrigerated until ready to enjoy.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for a smoother filling.
- You can substitute whipped topping with freshly whipped cream for a fresher taste.
- For added texture, sprinkle crushed toffee or graham cracker crumbs on the pops before the coating sets.
- Use high-quality butterscotch syrup for the best flavor.
- Store popsicles in an airtight container in the freezer and consume within one week.
