Steps:
- For the cheesecake mixture: Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Beat the cream cheese until smooth in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the sugar, vanilla and graham cracker crumbs and beat until well combined. Scoop 1-tablespoon balls of the cheesecake mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Freeze for about 30 minutes.
- For the strawberry sauce: Meanwhile, combine the strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until the sugar is dissolved and the berries begin to break down and to give off their juices, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds. Set aside.
- For the batter: Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until the oil registers 350 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the milk and whisk until smooth.
- When the oil is ready, remove the cheesecake balls from the freezer. Working in batches, add the cheesecake balls to the batter a few at a time, turning to coat. Remove from the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and then carefully add to the oil. Fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per batch (allow the oil to return to temperature between batches). Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on the paper towels.
- Serve warm, with strawberry sauce.

Steps:
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Crush your slivered almonds. In a mixing bowl whisk together the almond flour, almonds, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Add the butter and combine with a spoon. Line a muffin tin with liners. Push the almond mixture into the bottom of the liners. Bake for 10 minutes to set. Turn oven down to 300°. In a mixing bowl, add cream cheese, vanilla, sugar and eggs. Beat until light and fluffy. Spoon mixture into the muffin tins with prepared almond crust. Bake for 40 minutes. While cakes are cooking, start on the caramel. Combine granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons water in a medium, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat; cook until sugar dissolves, stirring gently for 3 minutes. Stop stirring and continue cooking 10 minutes or until the color of light brown sugar. Remove from heat; carefully stir in butter and milk.

CHEESECAKE BITES
Steps:
- Chill a clean ice cube tray in the freezer. For the cheesecake filling: In a food processor, mix together the cream cheese, yogurt, confectioners' sugar and vanilla until smooth. Pour into a large resealable plastic bag and set aside. Clean out the food processor bowl for the chocolate covering.
- For the chocolate covering: In a food processor, mix together the cocoa powder, coconut oil and confectioners' sugar until smooth.
- Using a pastry brush, grease the chilled ice cube tray with coconut oil. Spoon the chocolate shell mixture into each compartment, tilting the tray around to coat the sides. Cut a small corner off the bottom of the bag of filling and squeeze into each chocolate mold. Spoon more chocolate over the filling to cover. Freeze for 4 to 5 hours, or overnight.
- Before removing the cheesecakes, set the frozen tray on the counter for 2 to 3 minutes to start defrosting. Remove as you would ice cubes, by twisting the tray, or running the underside of the tray under warm water for a few seconds. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the taste of your cheesecake bites.
- Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature: This will help it mix smoothly with the other ingredients.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cheesecake bites tough.
- Bake the cheesecake bites until the center is set: A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the cheesecake bites cool completely before serving: This will help them set and firm up.
