I think I would need a larger shot glass hahahaha I love lemon !! I saw the other shoot glass desserts and it would make a wonderful tray of desserts to bring a family gathering. Thanks for these wonderful desserts!

In reply to Sweet Serenade. Lemon curd is far more tart and will change the recipe a bit, but it will work as long as you are happy with the resulting flavor. :)

Would I be able to sub the lemon filling for lemon curd or would it not be thick enough?

In reply to JENNIFER JONES. Oh yes, absolutely, make a single batch of my homemade whipped cream and use that instead. Enjoy!

In reply to Katie Ritzman. Hi Katie! They will be fine to be made a day in advance. :)

Could these be made a day ahead of serving? Or could the pipes ing be made a head and stored refrigerated until ready to assemble? Thank you

In reply to Megan Michael. Hi Megan! I've made these up to 2 days in advance. Store in an airtight container and they should be fine :)

If I wanted to make this before a party, how long would they last for (how far in advance should I make them)? Thanks!

Fantastic! I made these for a yellow themed, gender reveal party and they were a huge hit! Instead of using your recipe for the crust, I just used crumbled Pecan Sandie cookies- as a short cut! Will definitely be making these again!

In reply to Reba. Hi Reba! There are approximately 3 cups of Cool Whip in an 8 oz container, so only use 1 cup from the container as noted in the instructions and the rest should be used for layering and topping. Enjoy!

By: Reba

Reba — Sun, 18 Nov 2018 13:49:28 +0000

The recipe calls for 8 oz Cool Whip thawed (divided), then the instructions call for the entire 1 cup Cool Whip. Please let me know if the entire 8 oz is to be used, leaving none for the topping. Thanks.

How far in advance can these be made? I would like to serve them for my daughters luncheon shower. Could I make them the night before? They look wonderful!

In reply to Michelle.

Hi Michelle! I would recommend using either a graham cracker crust or a crust made from Golden Oreos, depending on your preference. If you would like to do the graham cracker crust you can follow the “crust” instructions in this recipe: https://sugarspunrun.com/smores-cheesecake-dessert-shooters/
and if you’d prefer to do the Oreos you can follow the crust instructions here (use regular golden oreos, not cake batter oreos): https://sugarspunrun.com/cake-batter-cheesecake-dessert-shooters/
I hope this helps! 🙂
