Individual No Bake Pineapple Cheesecakes


These were so fun a refreshing!  The pineapple flavor wasn't very strong, so I would maybe alter it if you want more.  Or just use fresh pineapple.  We loved it as is, though, and it was a major hit at a spring bridal shower.  We served them in plastic champagne glasses from Zurchers for a little extra presentation.

{What you need}
crust:
3/4 cup crushed Nilla wafer cookies
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled

filling:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons sugar
12 oz pureed pineapple (we used canned)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 8 oz tub frozen whipped topping, thawed
whipped topping and extra cookies for garnish

Combine the crust ingredients and make sure the butter is evenly incorporated.  In each cup, press in about 3 tablespoons of the cookie crumbs to form a crust layer.  Combine all the filling ingredients and pour into a gallon freezer bag.  Seal bag shut.  Cut a little bit of the corner off and evenly pipe the filling into each cup. Top with whipped topping and a wafer cookie for garnish right before serving.
