Lemon Cheesecake Bombs Recipe

Lemon Cheesecake Bombs
Lemon Cheesecake Bombs are individually sized sweet and tart desserts that melt in your mouth. Perfect for a warm summer evening.
Ingredients
Graham Cracker Crust
- 5 ½ oz. (1 packet) graham crackers, crushed
- 6 tbsp. butter, melted
- ¼ cup sugar
Lemon Cheesecake
- 8 oz. Cream Cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar, divided
- 1/3 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 tbsp. lemon zest
- 1 cup whipping cream
Lemon Curd
- ¾ cup sugar
- 1 tbsp. grated lemon rind
- 2 large eggs
- ⅔ cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp. butter
Instructions
Graham Cracker Crust
- Crush graham crackers in food processor. Add sugar and melted butter and pulse until completely combined
- Firmly press crumb mixture evenly in the bottom and up the sides of a 9x9 inch square baking pan
- Using a circle cutter that is the same size as your silicone mold, cut circles into the cracker mixture before baking. Do not remove from the pan
- Bake crust at 350 degrees for 8 minutes
Lemon Curd
- Combine first 3 ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring with a wire whisk.
- Cook until sugar dissolves and mixture is light in color (about 3 minutes).
- Stir in lemon juice and butter; cook 4 minutes or until mixture thinly coats the back of a spoon, stirring constantly with whisk.
- Cool. Cover and chill (mixture will thicken as it cools).
Lemon Cheesecake
- Combine cream cheese, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest in a bowl and mix until well combined and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream until it starts to get stiff, add the remaining 1/4 cup powdered sugar and whip until stiff.
- Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
- Spoon the cheesecake mixture into the silicone mold, about 2/3 full.
- Place a frozen lemon curd sphere into the middle of the cheesecake and press down slightly.
- If needed add more cheesecake mixture to completely cover the lemon curd, but do not overflow the mold.
- Place into the freezer and freeze until firm, about four hours.
- When ready to serve: Carefully remove one circle of graham cracker crust and place on a plate.
- Remove the cheesecake from the silicone mold and place on top of the graham cracker.
- Allow the cheesecake to thaw 30 minutes before serving.
- Tip: I recommend waiting to add the graham cracker crust to the cheesecake until just before serving so it remains crisp.
