NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE CUPS RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs until it's evenly distributed. Put approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the mixture into the bottom of each glass or serving dish.
• In a large bowl (or the bowl of your stand mixer), pour the whipped cream in and beat on high until stiff peaks form (around one minute for me).
• Scrape the whipped cream into a second bowl, then combine the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla and mix until completely smooth and creamy.
• Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture and stir until completely combined and creamy.
• Spoon the mixture into a piping bag (if you like) and pipe it into the cups. Or divide it evenly among your cups and spoon it in.
• Top with fresh fruit (optional), cover and chill for at least an hour before serving.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE CUPS

Steps:

• In a bowl, stir together the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice and lemon zest until well combined. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag and refrigerate.
• Combine the chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. (Alternately, you can melt the chocolate with the oil in a double boiler.).
• Line the mini muffin pan with the paper candy cups. Spoon 1 teaspoon of the melted chocolate into each cup, tap the pan on the counter so the chocolate flattens out then refrigerate the pan for 15 minutes until the chocolate is firm.
• Remove the pan and the cheesecake mixture from the fridge. Pipe a portion of the cheesecake mixture in the center of each cup, then top the cheesecake with another 1 to 2 teaspoons of melted chocolate. Sprinkle the tops of each cup with sea salt then return the pan to the fridge for 20 minutes until the chocolate has fully hardened. If not serving immediately, store the cups in an airtight container in the fridge.

NO-BAKE RASPBERRY PRETZEL CUPS

Steps:

• Pulse the pretzels, melted butter and brown sugar in a food processor until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
• Place the cream cheese in the bowl of a heavy stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat until smooth. Add the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and vanilla. Beat until light and fluffy. Set aside.
• Stir together the chopped raspberries and granulated sugar in a medium bowl.
• Divide the pretzel mixture evenly in the bottom of 4 parfait cups. Top evenly with the cheesecake filling, followed by the berries. Garnish each with whipped cream, a pretzel twist and a raspberry.

NO-BAKE PEACHES AND CREAM CHEESECAKE CUPS

Steps:

• For the crumbs: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the amaretti crumbs, butter, salt and cinnamon and pulse until the crumb mixture resembles wet sand. Spoon the crust mixture into six 6-ounce jars, dessert cups or ramekins. Pat the crumbs down lightly.
• For the cheesecake mixture: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the heavy cream and 2 tablespoons of the confectioners' sugar and beat to medium peaks. Transfer to a bowl and set aside in the refrigerator.
• To the stand mixer bowl fitted with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese and mascarpone and beat until fluffy and no lumps remain. Add the vanilla, lemon zest and remaining 4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar and beat until well combined. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.
• Divide the cheesecake evenly among the containers with a spoon or transfer the mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a large round tip and pipe in the filling. Cover and refrigerate until chilled and set, 2 to 3 hours.
• For the peach salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, honey and lemon juice. Stir to combine.
• Before serving, top each cheesecake cup with peach salsa and garnish with mint.
