Description
A ridiculously easy, no-bake dessert featuring creamy Greek yogurt and cream cheese filling on a graham cracker crust, topped with fresh or frozen berries. Ready in just 5 minutes of active prep time.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (225g) full-fat cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup (240g) full-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons (45ml) honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups (150g) graham crackers, crushed
- 3 tablespoons (42g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup (150g) mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries), fresh or frozen
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
- Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Press about 1.5 tablespoons of the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of each ramekin or muffin cup. Chill in the fridge while making the filling.
- In a separate bowl or blender, combine the softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Blend or whisk until completely smooth and glossy.
- Spoon or pipe the filling over the chilled crusts, filling each cup to the top. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
- Top each cup with 3-4 fresh or thawed and drained berries. Press them slightly into the filling.
- Chill the assembled cups in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, until set.
- Serve cold. Optional: drizzle with extra honey or sprinkle with lemon zest before serving.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps. If using frozen berries, thaw and drain excess liquid to prevent a watery filling. The dessert tastes better after chilling for a few hours as flavors meld. Do not freeze assembled cups as the texture will become grainy.
