Pineapple Cheesecake Shooters

Sharing is caring!

These no bake pineapple cheesecake shooters are a quick dessert that everyone will absolutely flip over.

I love making simple and easy bite-sized desserts.

I used to do a lot of catering for weddings and parties, so I have a lot of fun foodie dishes that make desserts look fun but fancy — with almost NO prep whatsoever.

How to Make Pineapple Cheesecake Shooters

For this recipe, it is really just a handful of ingredients.

I used Nairn's gluten free original biscuits to create a Graham like cracker crumble.

The cheesecake center is cream cheese and whipped topping. I whipped room temperature cream cheese with a tub of frozen whipped topping to create the perfect cheesecake like texture.

You can make this thinner by adding a little heavy cream to it, but I like mine pretty thick.

The pineapple is just fresh pineapple that I got in my Melissa's Produce box.

I ran it through my food processor for a bit to give it a crushed pineapple feel.

How to Assemble Pineapple Cheesecake Shooters

I found these cute little shooter glasses at the Dollar Tree — 6 for $1. They make the perfect little bite-sized dessert cup.

I take 2 packs of the Nairn's cookies and crush them up to make a fine ground graham cracker crumb.

I place a little in each glass. Then, I put the cream cheese mixture in a piping bag and pipe a little on top of the graham cracker crumbs. Next, I top with my crushed pineapple mixture.

Repeat the layers until you get to the top. Top with a dollop of whipped topping and a fresh pineapple tidbit for the perfect little dessert shooter.

I would love to make these for a New Year's Day open house, but am wondering how long I could leave them out at room temp? Any ideas?
