Cranberry Cheesecake Filled Chocolates |  These easy to make chocolates are filled with everyone’s favorite holiday condiment….cranberry sauce….mixed with a no bake cheesecake.  Give the gift of chocolate to your Thanksgiving Day hostess or place one in a small treat bag with a name tag for cute edible place cards.

You can use any mold to make these Cranberry Cheesecake Filled Chocolates.  I chose to use the Wilton Bite Size Treat Mold with acorn and leaf shapes.  The mold is nice and deep which makes adding filling easy.  I also used Wilton Dark Cocoa Candy Melts.

Spoon melted candy into molds; use a paint brush (only used for food) to help pull the candy up the sides of the molds.

Once hardened; fill with cranberry cheesecake and freeze for 30 minutes.

Top with more melted candy; refrigerate until hardened.

Pour remaining melted candy into a squeeze bottle; outline the leaf veins and tops of acorns.  Add festive sprinkles.
