Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • ¼ cup jam (any flavor)
  • ½ cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a bowl, beat the 8 oz cream cheese, 1/2 cup condensed milk, and 1 tbsp lemon juice until smooth. Pour into a small dish or ramekin and freeze for 2 hours, until firm.

  2. 2

    In a small saucepan, heat the 1/4 cup jam over medium until bubbling and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Let cool.

  3. 3

    Melt the 1/2 cup chocolate chips and 1 tbsp butter in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Spread thinly on a parchment-lined plate and freeze for 10 minutes, until hard.

  4. 4

    Remove the cheesecake from the freezer. Spoon the cooled jam over the top. Break the chocolate into shards and scatter over the jam. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately, or keep frozen until ready to eat.
