Instructions
Using a 1 to 1.5-inch ice cream scoop, form the cheesecake into compact balls, pressing firmly to ensure they hold their shape.
Insert a lollipop stick or wooden craft stick into the center of each cheesecake ball.
Place the pops on a baking sheet lined with wax paper and flash-freeze until they are very firm.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white or semi-sweet chocolate combined with a small amount of vegetable oil or shortening to create a smooth dipping consistency.
Dip each frozen cheesecake pop into the melted chocolate, rotating to coat fully, and gently shake off the excess.
While the chocolate is still wet, decorate with colored sugars or sprinkles for visual appeal.
Return the finished pops to the freezer and chill until the chocolate shell has completely snapped and set.
