Hello to all The 36th Avenue readers! It’s Aniko, from Place Of My Taste. We only have a  few days until CHRISTMAS and I am sure that many of you have been invited to Christmas parties or Holiday parties, or perhaps you will throw a party for you friends and family at home. If you are looking for an easy, fast, no bake dessert, look no further!



 



 

We were invited to a Christmas party and  I took this

fantastic Cream Cheese Mousse dessert with us last weekend and 

 I surprisingly noticed that all these little cute cups were GONE in no time.

 I would love to share this festive dessert recipe with you all today, so you can make it yourself.

 Of course this dessert has my favorite Christmas colors,

RED AND WHITE.



 

To make this dessert stand out, I cut out different shapes { gift box, stocking, heart }

 of red&white plastic cups { from IKEA}

 

Using a plastic bag, I nicely arranged the mousse into my cups, which I filled with chopped strawberries before.

Sprinkled some crushed pretzels on top to garnish.
