You bake them with all the ingredients, and after it's fully cooked you put it in the fridge to set.

Do you bake them after youve put the cream cheese or do they go straight to the fridge for 4 hours? Thank you

I just mixed everything together: raspberries, graham crackers, cream cheese mix. And it tastes pretty good and eliminated the trouble of trying to get the graham cracker out of the cupcake wrapper. Just another option. Thanks for the awesome guide :D

Basically, but the proportions are different. You'll need more cream cheese.
