Strawberry Cheesecake Shooters Recipes

Steps:

• Crush graham crackers in a blender or food processor; add melted butter and sugar and blend until evenly combined. Gently press graham cracker mixture into 12 tall shot glasses.
• Mix unflavored gelatin and 1/4 cup boiling water together in a bowl until well mixed.
• Combine cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, and gelatin mixture in a blender; pulse a few times. Add 1 cup vodka; blend until smooth. Taste mixture and adjust confectioners' sugar if necessary. Pour cream cheese mixture over graham cracker layer, leaving about 1 inch on the top. Chill for at least 1 hour.
• Mix strawberry gelatin and 1/4 cup boiling water together in a bowl; stir well and add remaining 1/2 cup vodka and ice cubes. Stir until ice melts and mixture starts to thicken; pour over cream cheese mixture layer. Chill shots for at least 30 minutes.

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.
