Prepare the Baggie: Line a drinking glass with a Ziploc bag. Transfer the cheesecake mixture into the bag, zip it closed, and cut off a small tip to control portion size.

-
Prepare the Peanut Topping: Crush the peanuts into small crumbs using a food processor or Ziploc bag and rolling pin.

Combine Peanut and Oil: Melt 2 tablespoons of coconut oil and mix it with the crushed peanuts. Fill the muffin pan cavities with the peanut mixture, stirring occasionally.
-
Freeze: Freeze the bites for at least 2 hours or overnight to set.
-
Melt Chocolate Drizzle: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil. Stir until smooth.

Drizzle Chocolate: Place the cheesecake bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet and drizzle with the melted chocolate.

Serve or Store: Serve immediately, or store in the freezer or refrigerator until ready to enjoy.
Notes
For extra peanut butter flavor, add a few tablespoons of creamy peanut butter to the cheesecake filling.
You can substitute the agave nectar with stevia or erythritol for a sugar-free version.
For added texture, top with mini chocolate chips or crushed pretzels.
