Prepare the crust:
Mix crushed graham crackers, brown sugar, and melted butter until combined. Spoon a small amount into the bottom of each shot glass or mini dessert cup. Press down gently to form the base. Chill while you make the filling. -
Make the filling:
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar, lemon juice, and Fireball whiskey, mixing until fully incorporated. -
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and fluffy.
-
Assemble:
Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling over the crust in each shot glass. Smooth the tops with a spoon or spatula. -
Chill:
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or whipped cream before serving, if desired.
Notes
For extra spice, mix a pinch of cinnamon into the crust.
Use mini cupcake liners if you don’t have shot glasses.
Can be made 1–2 days ahead—just cover and refrigerate.
