WHITE CHOCOLATE AND AMARETTI CHEESECAKE SHOOTERS

White Chocolate and Amaretti Cheesecake Shooters

Today’s recipe is very simple and quick to make.  It is another one of my easy recipes that help me finish off leftovers.  I had a little cream and cream cheese that needed to be finished quickly, so I whipped up these white chocolate cheesecake shooters.  I added some amaretti cookies that I had in my pantry for a little crunch and also some fresh raspberries that always go great with white chocolate.  I love small sweet treats like these and my favourite desserts are made in shooters… don’t they look cute?  My husband liked them too and has been asking me to make them again… isn’t he lucky that I had written the recipe down??  Make these for yourself or for your next dinner party/buffet… everyone will love them and you won’t have worked too hard to make them.  Which is always a plus! 😉  Enjoy!

    1. Hi Hannah, I am not sure where you are located... but these are actually little candle holders that I got from a dollar store in Sydney. 😉

  3. Ciao Manu,
    fatti... sono davvero deliziosi. Mi chiedevo se riuscivi anche a darmi una variante più "leggera", per una fine pasto natalizia.
    Grazie

    1. Ciao! Sono proprio contenta che ti siano piaciuti! Ci sono un paio di opzioni per "alleggerire" la ricetta. Potresti invertire la proporzione tra il philadelphia e la panna... la crema risultera' piu' leggera (anche se in termini calorici non fa molta differenza ;-)). Io per limitare le calorie, uso il philadelphia light che e' anche piu' morbido e spalmabile per cui la crema risulta piu' liscia. Oppure, potresti farli piu' piccoli. Io li servo in bicchierini mignon (tipo porta candele) o sui cucchiai per accompagnare il caffe'. Fammi sapere che ne pensi!
      Buon Natale!!! 🙂
