Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup blackberry puree (strained of seeds)
  • 1 cup crushed chocolate cookies (optional, for crust)
  • 12 oz purple candy melts (or white chocolate + purple food coloring)
  • 2 oz dark chocolate, melted (for drizzle)
  • Fresh blackberries (for garnish)
  • Edible flowers or sprinkles (optional)
  • Lollipop sticks

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) and line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in sour cream, vanilla extract, and strained blackberry puree until fully combined.
  5. If using, press crushed chocolate cookies into the bottom of the pan to form a crust.
  6. Pour the cheesecake mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the center is set. Cool completely at room temperature.
  8. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 2 hours until firm.
  9. Once chilled, scoop small balls (1–2 tbsp each) from the cheesecake and roll into smooth shapes.
  10. Insert a lollipop stick into each cheesecake ball and freeze for 30 minutes to firm up.
  11. Melt the purple candy melts (or white chocolate with purple coloring) until smooth.
  12. Dip each cheesecake pop fully into the melted coating, letting excess drip off.
  13. Place the dipped pops on parchment paper and let them set.
  14. Drizzle with melted dark chocolate and top with a fresh blackberry or edible flower, if desired.

Notes

  • Use white chocolate with purple gel coloring if candy melts are unavailable.
  • For a crunchier base, press cookie crust into the pan before adding cheesecake batter.
  • Wrap individually in clear bags for gifting or party favors.
  • Store in the fridge until ready to serve to maintain shape and texture.
