Cherry Cheesecake Shooters

By srumbel

They’re little cherry cheesecake shooters—mini desserts that use a quick cream cheese filling and (wait for it) canned pie filling. They seriously take 15 minutes to make.

Preparation

Step 1

Put the graham crackers into a ziplock bag and smash them with a rolling pin until they're fine crumbs.

Spoon graham cracker crumbs into the bottom of mini wine glasses.

Add cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk to bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whip them together until fluffy.

Fill a pastry bag or zipper bag with the filing. Snip off the end and pipe a big helping over the crumbs in each of the glasses.


Top with a big spoonful of cherry pie filling.


Top with chopped almond flakes.

(Note: Mix 2 tablespoons melted butter into the crumbs if you'd like them to be a little more moist.)

(Use whatever kind of pie filling you'd like!)

(Note: 1 package of cream cheese makes for a more pudding-like texture; 2 packages makes for a thicker texture.)
