  5. Pour 1 ½ cup heavy cream into a separate, medium-sized bowl. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  6. Fold in whipped cream whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and well combined.
Assemble
  1. Pour the cheesecake filling into a large ziplock bag and snip off one corner. Pipe the filling into each shot glass, filling about ¾ of the way until all shot glasses are evenly filled.
  2. Serve as is or top with your preferred topping of fruit pie filling, whipped cream, or graham cracker crumbs on top!
  3. Cheesecake dessert cups can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container. The filling will thicken as it chills.

Notes

  • *You may substitute 12oz Cool Whip for the heavy whipping cream (skip the steps on beating to stiff peaks and just fold Cool Whip evenly into cream cheese mixture)
