Ingredients
For the Cheesecake Filling:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup butterscotch sauce (store-bought or homemade)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup whipped cream (heavy cream whipped until stiff peaks form)
For the Crust:
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Coating:
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
2 tbsp butterscotch chips (optional)
Sprinkles or crushed graham crackers for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until evenly coated.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop small portions of crust mixture, roll into balls, flatten into discs, and place on the sheet. Chill for 30 minutes.
- In another bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, butterscotch sauce, and vanilla extract; mix well.
- Gently fold in whipped cream until the filling is light and fluffy.
- Top each chilled crust disc with a spoonful of cheesecake filling and spread evenly.
- Insert a popsicle stick into each, then freeze for 2–3 hours until firm.
- Melt white chocolate chips and butterscotch chips in 20-second microwave intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Dip each frozen pop into the melted coating, ensuring full coverage.
- Sprinkle with crushed graham crackers or sprinkles while coating is still wet.
- Place back on parchment-lined sheet and freeze another 30 minutes until coating hardens. Serve chilled.
Notes
Drizzle extra butterscotch sauce or dust with edible gold powder for a magical touch.
Color the coating to match Hogwarts house colors for themed parties.
Use caramel sauce instead of butterscotch for a similar flavor.
Ensure pops aren’t rock-solid frozen when dipping to prevent coating cracks.
For a dairy-free version, use vegan cream cheese, coconut whipped cream, and dairy-free chocolate.
Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
