Foxwood Cheesecake Pops

Cheesecake pops

(Makes 30-40 pops; from Sticky, Chewy, Messy, Gooey by Jill O’Connor)

5 x 226g packages cream cheese at room temperature

2 cups sugar

¼ cup all-purpose flour

¼ teaspoon salt

5 large eggs

2 egg yolks

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

¼ cup heavy cream453g dark chocolate, finely chopped

2 tablespoons vegetable shortening or oil

Assorted decorations – optional [I used coloured sugar, strawberry jelly crystals, shredded coconut, hundreds and

thousands, silver conchos]

Position oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 166′C. set some water to boil.

In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sugar, flour, and salt until smooth. Add the whole eggs and the egg

yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla and cream.

Grease a 10-inch cake pan (not a springform pan), and pour the batter into the cake pan. Place the pan in a larger

roasting pan. Fill the roasting pan with the boiling water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the cake pan. Bake

until the cheesecake is firm and slightly golden on top, 35 to 45 minutes.

Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and cool to room temperature. Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap

and refrigerate until very cold, at least 3 hours or up to overnight.

When the cheesecake is cold and very firm, scoop the cheesecake into 56g balls and place on a parchment paper-

lined baking sheet. Carefully insert a lollipop stick into each cheesecake ball. Freeze the cheesecake pops,

uncovered, until very hard, at least 1 – 2 hours.

When the cheesecake pops are frozen and ready for dipping, prepare the chocolate. In the top of a double boiler, set

over simmering water, heat half the chocolate and half the shortening or oil, stirring often, until chocolate is melted and

chocolate and shortening are combined. Stir until completely smooth. Save the rest of the chocolate and shortening

for later dipping, or use another type of chocolate for variety. Quickly dip a frozen cheesecake pop in the melted

chocolate, swirling quickly to coat it completely. Shake off any excess into the melted chocolate. If you like, you can

now roll the pops quickly in optional decorations. Place the pop on a clean parchment paper-lined baking sheet to set.

Repeat with remaining pops, melting more chocolate and shortening (or confectionary chocolate pieces) as needed.

Refrigerate the pops for up to 24 hours, until ready to serve. To make a Fabulous cheesecake just adds a biscuit base

and fruit of your choice to the spring form pan.
