  • 2 blocks cream cheese 8 oz each
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar

  • 3 tbsp lemon juice from one large lemon
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1 pint raspberries
  • 1 package meyer lemon cookie thins 80 cookies total needed

Instructions

  • Place 68 cookie thins in the bowl of a food processor.
  • Process until cookies are crumbs with no large pieces remaining. Set aside.
  • In a medium/large bowl, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt and heavy cream.
  • Whip on medium high speed for 4 - 5 minutes until smooth and fluffy.
  • In each of the six glasses, place 3 - 4 tablespoons of lemon cookie crumbs in the bottom of the glass.
  • Pipe in a few tablespoons of cheesecake filling on top of cookie crumbs.
  • Place 6 raspberries in each glass, then top with another layer of lemon cheesecake filling.
  • Place 2 cookie thins on top, then pipe a dollop of cheesecake mixture on top of cookies.
  • Garnish with 2 raspberries on top.
  • Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

If you prefer to use regular graham crackers, you'll need 2 cups of crumbs for the bottom layer.
In my package of cookies, there are 34 cookie thins per sleeve. You'll need 2 sleeves for 2 cups of crumbs, plus an additional 1/3 of a sleeve for cookies in layers.
