No Bake Mini Cheesecakes
With the 4th of July this weekend that means it’s cookout/pool party time! I always love to make a little dessert that is red, white & blue but I also don’t want to spend hours making something. This super easy dessert can be made in less than 10 minutes and is SO delicious. If you don’t like strawberries and blueberries you can always swap them for anything you’d like. This recipe only makes 2 so you might want to double, triple, or quadruple. YUM!

Ingredients
Filling:
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
4 oz cream cheese
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar

Anything you’d like!
