Ingredients 

  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup chocolate animal crackers, crushed
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
  • 3 drops green food coloring
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 15 Andes mints

Instructions

  • Combine chocolate animal cracker crumbs and melted butter until crumbs are completely coated.
  • Spoon cookie crumbs into greased Instant Pot egg molds. Fill the molds halfway, and then compress crumbs until packed tight.
  • Whisk the room temperature cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Once smooth, mix in the egg, mint extract, and green food coloring, mix until thoroughly combined and the desired color is achieved.
  • Using a small spoon or small cookie scoop, spoon mixture in egg mold filling on top of cooking crumbs. Tap egg mold to make sure filling has no air pockets.
  • Cover egg mold with a layer of paper towel and a layer of foil.
  • Place trivet in Instant Pot with 1 cup of water and place egg mold on the trivet. Then place a tall trivet over the first egg mold and place a second egg mold on a tall trivet. If you don’t have a tall trivet, you can cook one mold at a time.
  • Cook on high pressure for 4 minutes, then let it naturally release pressure for 10 minutes. Once finished, remove egg mold and sit in the refrigerator for 4 hours—Chop Andes mints into bits.
  • Remove cheesecake poppers from the mold. Melt chocolate chips and drizzle over cheesecake poppers. Place Andes mint bits over poppers before the chocolate hardens.

Equipment

  • Instant Pot, or Ninja Foodi
