These Cherry Bomb Extract No‑Bake Cherry Cheesecake Cups are luscious, creamy desserts layered in jars: a crunchy graham cracker crust, smooth cheesecake filling infused with Cherry Bomb extract, topped off with a vibrant cherry glaze. They require no baking, just chilling, so most of the time is hands‑off as the flavors set. Perfect for when you want an impressive dessert without using the oven.

Ingredients

    blank

    • Graham cracker crumbs 120 grams (about 1 cup)

    • Unsalted butter, melted 50 grams (≈ 3½ Tbsp)

    • Granulated sugar 2 Tbsp

    blank

    • Cream cheese, softened 300 grams

    • Heavy whipping cream 120 ml

    • Powdered sugar ⅓ cup

    • Cherry Bomb extract 1 tsp (adjust to taste)

    • Vanilla extract ½ tsp

    blank

    • Cherry pie filling (or fresh/cherry compote) ¾ cup

    • Cherry Bomb extract ½ tsp

    • Powdered sugar 1 Tbsp

    • Lemon juice½ tsp

    Directions

    1. Make the crust layer: In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until the texture resembles wet sand. Divide this crumb mix into 6 dessert cups or jars, pressing firmly into the bottom to form the crust.

    2. Prepare the cheesecake filling: In a mixing bowl, whip the cream cheese until smooth. Add heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and Cherry Bomb extract. Beat on medium speed until mixture is light and fluffy.

    3. Assemble cheesecake layer: Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling over the crust in each cup, smoothing the top.

    4. Make cherry glaze: In a small saucepan, combine cherry pie filling (or compote), Cherry Bomb extract, powdered sugar, and lemon juice. Warm gently over low heat just until glaze is slightly thickened. Let it cool slightly.

    5. Top & chill: Once the glaze has cooled somewhat (but still pourable), top each cheesecake cup evenly. Cover with cling film or lids and refrigerate for at least 2½ to 3 hours until fully set.

    6. Serve & garnish: Serve chilled. Optionally garnish with a fresh cherry or graham cracker crumbs before serving for presentation.

    7. Storage tips: Keep in the refrigerator, in airtight containers or with lids. Best consumed within 4‑5 days. If freezing, omit the glaze; add glaze after thawing.
