Notes
- Choose graham crackers or digestive biscuits for a classic base that provides crunch and subtle sweetness.
- Ensure butter is completely melted and mixed thoroughly with crumbs to create a stable, compact bottom layer.
- Use room temperature cream cheese to prevent lumps and achieve a smooth, creamy texture when mixing with condensed milk.
- Experiment with alternative crusts like crushed Oreos or gluten-free cookies for different flavor profiles and dietary needs.
- Layer ingredients carefully and evenly to create visually appealing shooter glass desserts with clean, distinct layers.
- Chill glasses between layers to help each component set quickly and maintain structural integrity.
- Drizzle extra caramel sauce on top for additional indulgence and visual appeal before serving.
- Make ahead and store in refrigerator for up to 3 days, allowing flavors to meld and develop deeper richness.
