Tim Tam Cheesecake Balls

For a simple no bake dessert, you can’t go past these 3 Ingredient Tim Tam Cheesecake Balls!

I’ve been hearing for awhile now just how good (and easy to put together) Tim Tam Cheesecake Balls are, and I thought it was about time I tried them out for myself. Last night it was our boys Kindy Christmas party – the perfect excuse to make a Christmas themed batch of these little beauties to give to their Teachers as a gift – as well as keeping one (or two!) aside for me to try!

These Tim Tam Cheesecake Balls need just three ingredients to create, and oh my goodness, they are just amazing.  While they didn’t look very attractive before being coated in the melted chocolate (I decided to spare you that photo!) they more than made up for it with their creamy, chocolate and distinct Tim Tam taste.

Tips for Making these 3 Ingredient Tim Tam

Cheesecake Balls

• It’s important to chill the cheesecake mixture before attempting to roll into balls, if the mixture is too warm, it will melt in your hands and not form a ball.
• You also need to chill these cheesecake balls well before coating in the melted chocolate. I find it best to pop them into the freezer for half an hour.
• I used one pack of Tim Tams for the cheesecake mixture and then used a few extra Tim Tams from a second pack to decorate.
• You will need 1 1/2 blocks of milk chocolate for this recipe.
• To store, place into an airtight container and keep in the fridge for up to one week.

Ingredients

• 200 grams pack of Tim Tams plus extra to decorate
• 250 grams cream cheese softened
• 300 grams milk chocolate

Instructions

• Line a baking tray (or plate) with baking paper and set aside until needed.
• Using a food processor, blend until the Tim Tams are crumbs.
• Add the softened cream cheese and blend until combined.
• Place the mixture into the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes to chill
• Roll the mixture into balls (I made mine dessert spoon sized) and place on tray. Continue until all the mixture has been used.
• Place tray/plate into the freezer for a minimum of half an hour, you want the ball to be very firm.
• Break the milk chocolate into pieces and place in a microwave safe bowl to melt (you can also melt the chocolate in a bowl sitting above a saucepan on boiling water on the stove). I cook the chocolate for 30 second spurts until it's almost melted and then mix until it's completely melted.
• Remove the balls from the freezer.  Poke a skewer into the bottom of the balls and dip them in the melted chocolate.  Place on a wire rack to set.  Repeat until all the balls are coated.
• Optional - decorate the balls while the chocolate is still soft with sprinkles, hundreds and thousands or even melted white chocolate.
• Put the balls into the fridge for half an hour, or until the milk chocolate has set.

Notes

If you find your mixture is too soft, place it in the freezer/fridge to chill for longer.

This recipe will make 16 - 20 cheesecake balls depending on the size you roll them.
