Crust:
- store-bought Graham cracker crust (minis and a large)
Filling:
- 400g tub of Philadelphia cream cheese
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup sugar (just enough sweetness)
- 1/4 cup flour
Chocolate Glaze:
- 1 stick (113g) butter
- 6 oz (170g) chocolate chips
- 4 tsp (20 ml) maple syrup
Optional Topping:

Instructions
Crust:
- Grab a store-bought Graham cracker crust. No shame here—it’s quick and gets the job done.
- Brush the inside with beaten egg white and bake at 350°F for 5 minutes.
- Let it cool completely.
Filling:
- In a bowl, beat together until creamy the Philadelphia cream cheese, eggs, sugar and flour.
- Toss in a pack of mini unwrapped Rolos and stir them in.
- Pour everything into the crust and bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes, until it looks golden and set.
- Let it cool all the way before adding the glaze.
Chocolate Glaze:
- Melt these together in the microwave: the butter and chocolate chips (don’t cook them, just melt)
- Stir until smooth.
- Add the maple syrup
- Mix well and pour over your cooled cheesecake.
- Smooth it out. Now chill the whole thing overnight so it sets up nicely and firm.
Optional Topping:
- Out of chocolate chips? I was, too. I used some white Wilton decorating icing for a little swirl on top, but you can leave it plain or go all out with more chocolate. Up to you.
