- Gather your ingredients and preheat oven to 350°F.
- Crush graham crackers and combine with melted butter or oil. Press mixture into mini cupcake pan lined with liners.
- Combine cream cheese, sugar, milk, arrowroot powder, vanilla and lemon juice in a bowl.
- Spoon mixture into cupcake pan on top of the crust. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Let cool and then place in the fridge for 2 hours.
- While the cheesecakes are cooling, make your chocolate covered strawberries. Wash and pat the strawberries dry. Make sure they are thoroughly dried before dipping.
- Melt dark chocolate and coconut oil in a bowl.
- Dip each strawberry in the chocolate holding the stem or using a toothpick or skewer.
- Place the dipped strawberries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let them harden at room temperature for about 30 minutes or chill them in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes for faster setting.
- Melt the white chocolate in a bowl and transfer it to a small ziplock bag. Snip off a tiny corner and create a piping bag. Drizzle white chocolate on top of the strawberries to make stripes! Let sit until hardened.
- Remove cheesecakes from fridge, add extra melted chocolate on top and press a chocolate covered strawberry on each one.
