Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Combine cherries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Using a fork, gently mash cherries. Allow mixture to come to a boil and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook cherries, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes until the cherries soften and the juices slightly thicken. Allow to cool to room temperature before assembling parfaits.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and salt. Divide the mixture evenly between 6 glasses and set aside.
- In a large bowl, using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy. Mix in the vanilla until incorporated.
- In a medium bowl, whisk heavy cream until medium peaks form. Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, then fold in the other half.
- Evenly distribute no-bake cheesecake filling on top of graham cracker layers. Top with cooled cherries. Serve immediately.
