These no-bake cheesecake bites blend the smooth, boozy warmth of Baileys Irish Cream with creamy cream cheese and a crunchy graham cracker crust for an indulgent, easy-to-make dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz (450 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) Baileys Irish Cream
  • 3/4 cup (90 g) powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 1/2 cups (150 g) graham crackers, crushed
  • 6 tablespoons (85 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • Optional: chocolate shavings or cocoa powder for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Crush 1 1/2 cups (150 g) of graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin. Mix the crumbs with 6 tablespoons (85 g) of melted unsalted butter until evenly combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a muffin tin or silicone mold cups to form a thin crust layer. Chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set.
  2. Whip the cream: In a chilled bowl, beat 1 cup (240 ml) of heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form, about 3 to 5 minutes on medium-high speed.
  3. Mix cream cheese and Baileys: In a separate large bowl, beat 16 oz (450 g) softened cream cheese with 3/4 cup (90 g) powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly add 1/2 cup (120 ml) Baileys Irish Cream and mix just until blended.
  4. Fold in whipped cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula to keep the mixture light and airy.
  5. Assemble the bites: Spoon or pipe the cheesecake mixture on top of the chilled crust in your molds, filling each cup almost to the top. Smooth the surface with the back of a spoon.
  6. Chill to set: Refrigerate the cheesecake bites for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until firm.
  7. Serve and garnish: Just before serving, optionally dust the bites with cocoa powder or sprinkle with chocolate shavings.

Notes

Use softened cream cheese to avoid lumps. Whip cream to soft peaks only to maintain light texture. Chill crust before adding filling to prevent sogginess. Folding whipped cream gently preserves airy texture. For gluten-free, substitute graham crackers with almond flour or gluten-free cookies. For dairy-free, use coconut-based cream cheese and cream and dairy-free Baileys if available.
