You read the title correctly, dairy-free Cheesecake Fillo Bites. I had Alex in mind when I started making these. He loves cheesecake, but being allergic to dairy, it no longer loves him. The filling is very similar to the one in cheesecake stuffed strawberries, but this version has a crispy shell. Besides, you can’t buy decent strawberries in Iowa in January anyway!

What you need to make this recipe:

mini fillo shells
cream cheese – regular or non-dairy
powdered sugar
vanilla extract
graham cracker

How to make Cheesecake Fillo Bites

Beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy in a medium bowl.

Add the sugar and vanilla, continue beating to combine.

Fill shells with cream cheese mixture.

Place graham cracker in a plastic zipper bag, crush with a rolling pin (roll over the cracker a few times).

Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs over cheesecake bites.

Chill until ready to serve.

You can doctor these up cheesecake bites however you would like. With the 5 ingredient and 15 minutes rule, I couldn’t play around too much with them. Chocolate, lemon curd, fruits, the possibilities are endless.
