EASTER BROWNIE CHEESECAKE BIRDS NESTS
Easter Brownie Cheesecake Birds Nests; brownie crust, creamy cheesecake filling topped with mini eggs for a delicious Easter dessert recipe!
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Chill Time 8 hours hrs
- 1 box brownie mix (I used this one)
- 16 oz cream cheese at room temperature
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 6 tablespoon white sugar
- 2 tablespoon sour cream
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 72 mini eggs
- 1 Chocolate bar for the shavings
Mix the brownie mix according to the packaging. Pour evenly into 24 muffin tins to make the base of the bites. Bake according to packaging but keep an eye on them because they may not need to be in as long. Once baked, you can either squish them down or cut off the tops. I just pushed mine down with a spoon. Cool in fridge while preparing the cheesecake layer.
To make the cheesecake layer, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Next, cream together the cream cheese, lemon juice, sour cream, vanilla, and sugar in a medium bowl (2 minutes with an electric mixer or 5 minutes with a hand whisk).
Add everything together and blend SLOWLY until combined. Scoop this cheesecake filling onto the brownies. Disperse evenly.
Cover the pan and refrigerate overnight. Add on the chocolate shavings and mini eggs before serving!
- Cheesecake bites should always be stored in the refrigerator, covered. They will keep fresh for up to 2 weeks.
- If you want to freeze these, then place them in a ziplock bag or airtight container, and store them in the freezer for up to 6 months.
