Summer is officially here, well for us it is anyway, and with cookouts, potlucks and picnics you always want some delicious and cool treat for dessert. These Strawberry No-Bake Cheesecake Mini Pies are effortless and perfect for that warm summer night's after dinner indulgence.

While aimlessly strolling the aisles of Walmart the other day, searching for the perfect treat to satisfy our sweet tooth's, I spied the new Keebler® Ready Crust® Mini Graham Cracker Pie Crusts. Seriously so tiny and cute, I had to try them, and since the price was so insanely low, I might have purchased two packages just so I could make these again next week. Each package comes with 6 mini graham cracker pie shells and I couldn't love them anymore than I do. So then I was like, "Hmm, what should I put in these?" and I immediately thought of the no-bake cheesecake recipe that's been handed down in our family for ages. I decided to switch things up a bit and add something extra that my family recipe doesn't call for though... If you hang around me very long at all, you'll find out that I'm a Greek yogurt fanatic, I seriously LOVE that stuff, so much better than regular yogurt in my opinion. And since I also love strawberries very, very, very much I grabbed the  Dannon® Light & Fit® Strawberry Cheesecake Greek Yogurt to add to the filling. We had also just been early strawberry picking at a local strawberry garden and picked the most gorgeous and sweet strawberries ever, so it was pretty much fate. We had so much fun picking the strawberries and our daughter is obsessed with them, she loves alllllll the strawberries. I also wanted to "fancy it up" a little on the top, so instead of buying traditional tub whipped cream I decided to go for the Reddi-wip® original canned whipped cream (we purchased the 13oz size) to top it off. We also used this whipped cream in the filling!


The Keebler® Ready Crust® Mini Graham Cracker Pie Crust are the perfect size, a few bites and they're gone, perfect for those watching their portions but who still want a treat, and the Reddi-wip® whipped cream and Dannon® Light & Fit® Strawberry Cheesecake Greek Yogurt blend so perfectly together with the other ingredients to create a super creamy and irresistible no-bake cheesecake filling that's beyond delicious. You might even want more than one. You might even eat more than one. My personal advice? Eat two. Always eat two. You can thank me later. Lol.
 
The fresh strawberries really complete this personal mini pie for an extra summer-y feel, plus who doesn't love fresh fruit?! Fresh fruit AND the Dannon® Light & Fit® Strawberry Cheesecake Greek Yogurt are both healthy things, so there's that. I mean, fresh fruit and light Greek yogurt always cancel out the other stuff like cream cheese and sugar that might not otherwise be considered "healthy"... right? ;)
 

These are so easy to make, literally effortless, it only takes 10 minutes (at most) to whip these delicious little things up and my 2 year old who loves to cook and bake even helped me mix the filling ingredients together! I love spending time with my daughter, making memories in the kitchen with her is always a wonderful thing. Have last minute guests? This is the most perfect dessert you can make!
