If you are into ridiculous food creations, these cheery cheesecake shooters will likely appeal to you. Crafted by food blogger Tym Bussanich, the dessert shot is extremely easy to make at home. This is not only great for people who don't enjoy the taste of alcohol and prefer [flavored shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-shots1), it is also for the culinary adventurers and alcohol aficionados.

To make your own bite-sized [cherry cheesecake shooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cherry-cheesecake), you will need a box of Jell-O cherry cheesecake mix and eight shot glasses. You can fill the cavity with [cream cheese icing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheesecake-bites) and leave them non-alcoholic as a fun-sized snack, or you can get creative and find a way to incorporate your favorite adult-appropriate filling for the middle.
