Рецепт Individual No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecakes (in a bottle)
Summer is officially here and we are already in the middle of serious Grilling season. With 4th of July approaching real fast, I thought I will share some of my favorite dishes that can be made for your next backyard bbq or bring them to a potluck or even a picnic.
First up is a no-bake cheesecake with layers of cookie crumbs, chocolate cheesecake filling, toffee bits and chopped nuts. Doesn't that sound delicious. These are a big hit every time I served them at parties. They are easy to make and can be made ahead of time, so you are ready to chill and enjoy your party.
I used baby food jars (6oz.), but they can be made in any 6~8oz. disposable glasses or even in small trifle dishes. This is more of an idea, so feel free to substitute the layers with your favorite fillings and have fun!! Enjoy!!
