Description
A delightful dessert combining creamy cheesecake, sweet cherry topping, and a crunchy graham cracker crust, served in individual portions.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups finely crushed graham cracker crumbs
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar
- 7 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a small bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until combined. Set aside.
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until smooth. Add the sweetened condensed milk and beat until well combined. Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla extract.
- Assemble the Trifles: Set 6 plastic 9-ounce punch cups on the counter or a cookie sheet. Scoop 2 tbsp of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each cup and press down lightly. Add 3 tbsp of the cheesecake mixture to each cup and spread evenly. Evenly distribute half of the cherry pie filling between the 6 cups, reserving the other half for later. Sprinkle 2 tbsp of the graham cracker mixture over the cherry layer.
- Layer and Finish: Divide the remaining cheesecake mixture between the 6 cups and spread evenly. Add the reserved cherry pie filling on top, then sprinkle with the remaining graham cracker crumbs.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately or chill for up to 24 hours before serving.
