- 120 ml heavy cream, chilled

- 60 grams unsalted butter, melted

Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, crush the digestive biscuits or graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
Step 2
Add the melted butter to the crumbs and mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Step 3
Divide the mixture evenly into 6 small serving glasses or ramekins and press down firmly to form the base layer. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
Step 4
In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy using a handheld or stand mixer.
Step 5
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Step 6
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined, creating a light and fluffy filling.
Step 7
Spoon or pipe the cream cheese filling evenly over the biscuit base in each serving glass.
Step 8
Top the filling with a generous layer of cherry pie filling or cherry compote.
Step 9
Refrigerate the desserts for at least 1 hour to chill and set before serving.

Serve chilled and enjoy this creamy, tangy, and fruity dessert!
