Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). In a food processor, finely crush chocolate cookies until they resemble fine crumbs.
- Combine these crumbs with melted butter until well mixed. Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- Press the cookie mixture firmly into the bottoms of each liner to create a solid crust.
- In a mixing bowl, beat room-temperature cream cheese with sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, blending gently until fully incorporated and lump-free.
- Fold in fresh raspberries carefully to ensure even distribution.
- Spoon the cheesecake filling into the prepared crusts, filling each about three-quarters full.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until set but slightly jiggly in the center.
- Remove the muffin tin from the oven and cool at room temperature for approximately 15 minutes.
- Transfer them to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours.
- Carefully remove the cheesecake bites from the muffin tin using the liners.
- Serve chilled, garnished with extra raspberries and a light dusting of powdered sugar.

Notes
These bites require room temperature cream cheese for a smooth mixture. Avoid overmixing after adding eggs to prevent cracks. They can be made a day in advance for convenience.
