Mini Cherry Cheesecake Trifles – A wonderful cheesecake pudding layered with cherry pie filling and crushed graham crackers make a wonderful dessert!

 These little desserts look so fancy, but they are so easy!  I love that!  It makes you look like you worked so hard, but you know you really didn’t put that much effort into these.

 So I made these and put them in the refrigerator for after supper.  You should have been at my house to see the reactions I got as the refrigerator door was opened throughout the afternoon.  Should I say they were excited?  Slightly.

This is a recipe that I normally would make in a 13 x 9 pan.  But I thought, wouldn’t it be fun to make it fancy?  And the kids think they are so grown up when they get to eat anything out of a glass, especially a fancy one!

You could even make these for a backyard BBQ party or pool party using clear plastic cups.  The recipe made about 5 generous size portions.  You could definitely make it go further using smaller cups.
