Strawberry Cheesecake Dessert Shots

Need another idea for your holiday party, perhaps New Year's Eve parties?? As you can tell, I'm loving mini desserts and especially when their in shot or martini glasses. I think it's such a cute and very chic way of presenting a dessert. For my "Girls Night In" party, I made a super easy Strawberry Cheesecake dessert and put them in shot glasses that I purchased at Ross (6pk for $3.99). My friends loved them! Not to mention, it's NO-bake, meaning.......NO STRESS!
