    Recipe Variations

    Try a Gingersnap Pie Crust and top with a peach puree, Nilla Wafers Crust is a classic too. You can also try this Flaky Pie Crust Recipe or keep it simple with an Easy Graham Cracker Crust.

    Recipe for Cheesecake, No-Bake Recipe

    If cheesecake is your jam, you're gonna want to try this recipe.  It has all the flavors you love in cheesecake, without the heaviness of a baked cheesecake recipe or the time it takes to make that baked cheesecake.   It's made with cream cheese, whipped cream, sweetened with powdered sugar, and flavored with a splash of vanilla. It's a simple and easy, no-fail recipe everyone loves.  

    You can add just about any topping to this no-bake cheesecake recipe.  We love adding cherry pie filling, a dollop of whipped cream with fresh berries, cranberry-orange sauce, this lemon curd syrup is amazing, and also this mixed berry syrup too. The possibilities are endless. Yum!

    If No-Bake Cheesecakes are your thing, there are a couple more you've gotta try.  This Easy Pumpkin Cheesecake is a favorite around the holidays, and this Easy Nutella Cheesecake is perfect for your Nutella Lovers. And of course, you can't go wrong with a classic Easy Chocolate Cheesecake. 

     No Bake Crustless Cheesecake Recipe:

    You can also make this a no-bake crustless cheesecake. It's a great recipe for a trifle, a topping for crepes, or a filling for cupcakes. Mini no-bake cheesecakes are fun too. 

    You can get tiny, one-cup-sized mason jars and fill or layer them with a graham cracker crust and this cheesecake filling and then top with berries or a chocolate sauce.  It's the perfect no-bake dessert for a bridal or baby shower.

    Ingredient in No-Bake Cheesecake:

    • Cream Cheese- You can use Phillidelpia Cream Cheese or any store brand.  You can also use full-fat or reduced-fat cream cheese.  Either works great. 
    • Powdered Sugar- This is to sweeten the cheesecake.  
    • Whipping Cream- You will whip this with an electric mixer.  You can use Cool Whip but I don't suggest it unless you're in a dire situation and can't get your hands on whipping cream.  It will definitely change the texture and flavor of the cheesecake. 
    • Vanilla-Pure Vanilla Extract is great. 

    Ingredients in Graham Cracker Crust:

    You can also do an oreo crust, lemon oreo crust, nilla wafer crust or if this is for the holidays, a gingersnap crust is fantastic. 

    • Graham Crackers- Any brand or variety will do.
    • Sugar- regular granulated sugar is great.
    • Butter- salted butter works great

    How to make No-Bake Cheesecake

    1. In a bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.
    2. In an electric mixer with the beater attachment, beat cream cheese until fluffy. (Note: Make sure your cream cheese is room temperature or the mixture will be lumpy. You can also microwave for 40-45 seconds to soften.)
    3. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat again until fluffy.
    4. Fold the whipped cream and cream cheese mixtures until light and fluffy.
    5. Pour the no-bake cream cheese mixture into prepared graham cracker crust.
    6. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until ready to serve.
