How to Make Forbidden Forest Blackberry Cheesecake Step-by-Step

  1. Step 1: In a saucepan, combine blackberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens. Strain the compote and let it cool.
  2. Step 2: In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add in vanilla extract and whipped topping, then gently fold in graham cracker crumbs and half of the cooled blackberry swirl.
  3. Step 3: Scoop the cheesecake mixture into tablespoon-sized balls using a small ice cream scoop or your hands. Insert lollipop sticks into each ball and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 1 hour, until firm.
  4. Step 4: Melt the dark chocolate melting wafers according to package instructions. Dip each frozen cheesecake ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring an even coating. Tap off excess chocolate carefully.
  5. Step 5: Immediately decorate the pops with edible glitter, crushed graham crackers, or candy eyes, and place them back in the fridge to set for 15-20 minutes. Drizzle with the remaining blackberry swirl before serving.
