I found these via a Facebook community, too. They cropped your picture and didn’t give credit (unless “nothing on this page is ours. no infringement intended!” counts…) I had to hunt for your page using Google image search.
Here’s their page in case you want to say something. I don’t think they mean to be rude but none of their posts link to anyone’s page or give any credit. It’s bad internet etiquette if nothing else…

Thank you! 🙂
Hi,
I want to make these for a party~ how do you think these would hold up being made ahead of time and stored or transported?
Thanks!
I’d dip them as you go…fresh. 😉
I wanted to print the cherry cheescake, and was so disappointed that it printed “everything” and used the rest of my ink, because it printed ALL the pictures. Usually when you hit “print” for a recipe, it prints the recipe and maybe one pic.This one printed 11 pictures. Such a waste of ink and paper. I’m am excited to try this recipe, but beware when printing one off.
You need to hover your cursor over the sections/pics you don’t want and it gives you the option to delete. This will get easier after my blog facelift! 🙂
I think strawberry’s sound good to, I think I’m gonna try it with both of them I’ll let you know in a little bit.
I just want you to know that ever since I’ve been following you, I’ve gained 5 pounds. LOL! <3 Too much awesomeness. Thank you.
Lol..thank you! 🙂
I am making these this weekend I`m having a b-day party for my Boyfriend we where just talking about cherry cheese cake I`m going to surprise him with this
Thanks for the wonderful recipe. Im looking for something i can make to put in the christmas tins this will work great.
Love the idea. You’re a genius! I’m going to try this with apples, pears and peaches as well. With cheesecake how can you go wrong? Ya know, LOL
Love this idea they look delish i am trying going to try with neufchatel chesse and stevia instead of granulated sugar just trying to keep the fat a bit lower for my self. But will make the regular recipe for the family !!!!
Id love to have this recipe! I don’t have a printer so would you Please send recipe to my email address? Thank You, Marsha
You can also use the choc cream cheese in a tub to dip strawberries in, I would use smashed choc graham crackers though
Looks great – I’m going to try this with fresh strawberries and a toothpick for the stem.
I wonder how these would be if they were dipped in chocolate 1st then dipped in the cheesecake and then graham cracker crumbs.
perfection 🙂
