Yield Makes approximately 24 individual cheesecake shooters or 1 (9 inch) pie

Number Of Ingredients 14

For Graham Cracker Crust
1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup granulated sugar
6 Tbsp. melted butter
6 Tbsp. For the Cheesecake
2 pkg. (8 oz. each) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, at room temperature
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
2-1/2 tsp. JELL-O Lemon Flavor Gelatin
zest from one lemon
1/2 tsp. lemon extract
1/2 tsp. For the Strawberry Topping
4 cups chopped strawberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 Tbsp. vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the cheesecake:
  • Beat PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese and sweetened condensed milk in a medium bowl until smooth, then beat in gelatin mix, lemon zest, and lemon extract. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to set up (I left mine overnight).
  • For the strawberry topping:
  • Combine all ingredients in a medium pot over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 12-15 minutes. Let cool and store in fridge until ready to use. *Mixture will thicken upon cooling.
  • For the graham cracker crust:
  • Whisk graham cracker crumbs and sugar together, then drizzle in melted butter and combine until mixture is uniform.
  • To assemble cheesecake shooters:
  • Add 1 Tbsp or so of graham cracker crust to the bottom of a small glass or shot glass. Top with 2 Tbsp cheesecake mixture, then 1 Tbsp of strawberry topping. Serve immediately. Images do not match method of preparation. Looks like two layers.
  • Note: For a more traditional looking cheesecake, press the entirety of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of a 9 inch pie plate. Fill with cheesecake mixture, then top with strawberry topping. Place in fridge to set up for four hours before serving.
