Why dessert shots work so well for a party

• Portions are done for you. Each glass is one serving, so there is no cutting, no plates and no messy last slice.
• Make-ahead friendly. No-bake layers set in the fridge, so you can make them the day before and keep the oven free.
• Variety on one tray. Two or three flavors side by side look like far more effort than one big dessert.

Tips for no-bake dessert shots

• Glasses. Small clear glasses or plastic shot cups of around 70ml (about 2.5 oz) show off the layers. Clear plastic cups are lighter for a buffet and travel better.
• Clean layers. A piping bag, or a zip bag with the corner snipped off, puts cream into a small glass without smearing the sides.
• Crunch last. Crushed biscuits and cereal soften in the fridge, so keep a little back to sprinkle on just before serving.
• Keep them cold. Anything with cream or mousse belongs in the fridge until serving time, and should not sit out for more than about 2 hours.
• Spoons. Long, thin dessert spoons reach the bottom of a shot glass far better than teaspoons.
