Cheesecake on a Stick Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cheesecake (8-inch size)
1 package (12 oz size) milk chocolate chips
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening
1/2 cup chopped nuts or brittle chips
8 Popsicle sticks
Directions:
Line a baking sheet with wax paper.
Cut cheesecake into equal wedges (one for each popsicle stick) and make a 1/4-inch horizontal slit in the center back of the crust of each slice of cheesecake with the tip of a knife.
Insert a wooden craft stick through the slit, halfway into each slice. Place the slices on the baking sheet, cover, and freeze overnight.
Melt the chocolate chips and shortening over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and spoon over the cheesecake slices, coating completely and allowing the excess chocolate to drip back into the saucepan.
Before the chocolate hardens, sprinkle 1 tablespoon nuts over the top of each and return to the baking sheet; freeze for 1 hour, or until the chocolate and cheesecake are frozen.
Strawberry Cheesecake Popsicles
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup Miracle Whip light
8 ounces Cool Whip, thawed
2 cups miniature marshmallows
10 ounces frozen sliced strawberries
3/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted
Mix cream cheese and dressing until well blended. Gently stir in whipped topping, marshmallows, strawberries and pecans. Spoon into 5-ounce paper drinking cups; insert wooden stick in center of each cup. Freeze until firm. Remove paper cups from pops before serving

I saw that with the Dean boys too!! They looked soooo good!! think it is just chilled no-bake cheesecake piped onto cookie sheets as we saw, then put on a lollypop stick and dunked in chocolate, nuts. etc...FOUND ANOTHER RECIPE, CLOSER TO THE TV ONE!!
S’More Cheesecake Pops
1 small prepared cheesecake, freezer section
1 tub chocolate disks, in the baking section labeled for coating strawberries
15-20 lollipop sticks or heavy duty toothpicks, found by candy making supplies
1/3 cup crushed graham crackers or nuts
Yes, you can certainly bake your own cheesecake, but for those who wish to purchase it prepared, look no further than the freezer section in the grocery. I can never find the same size or brand from store to store so keep the leftovers frozen for dessert later in the week.
Find a tray or plate that will fit in your freezer and line it with parchment or wax paper.
To begin, let the cheesecake thaw for 10-15 minutes for easier handling. If it is room temperature it will be very hard to work with. Scoop and roll a bite size ball of the cheesecake, a very small ice cream scoop works great for this, also if your hands are wet the cheesecake will not stick as much. Place the balls of cheesecake on the prepared tray or plate. Insert the lollipop stick through the cheesecake and place the tray in the freezer to firm.
When the pops are completely firm, melt the chocolate according to the package directions. Carefully dip the cheesecake pop completely into the melted chocolate, then into the cracker or nut crumbs and place it on a clean parchment lined tray. This time return them to the refrigerator to let the chocolate firm up. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Tip: when you dip the cheesecake pop in the chocolate, make sure the chocolate covers the cheesecake ball as well as a small portion of the stick. This will help hold the whole thing together especially when it comes to room temperature. If some cheesecake is showing it will get too soft and possibly fall off the stick. One tub of the chocolate disks will cover about 18-20 pops.

I've been looking for this recipe too (after seeing Road Tasted). View the Food Network channel on 9/3 - Behind the Bash with Giada De Laurentiis at 2:30.

I saw the "Road Tasted" episode too! They used a prebaked no crust cheesecake. He took half of the chilled cheesecake and beat it in a stand mixer until it was the consistency of a thick frosting then he took a cake decorating "piping" bag and piped it onto waxed paper then chilled it before dipping. I'm guessing it would be best if they were nearly or completely frozen prior to dipping to set the chocolate more quickly. I'm planning on making some for a wedding in September. They look yummy. Goodluck
