When the weather gets warm, I really love to make desserts like this no bake cheesecake that are quick and easy. This is one of those desserts! My family wants to spend as much time as possible outside in the gorgeous weather. We go to our local swimming pool, grill our dinners on the patio, lounge on the hammock with a book, and go to baseball games. There’s just no room in that equation for babysitting an oven! And no one wants to turn on the oven when it’s already hot in your house.
That’s why I love this no bake cheesecake recipe. You don’t even have to turn on the oven, and it comes together in a snap.
How do you make a No Bake Cheesecake?
It starts with a classic graham cracker crust with a hint of cinnamon, so it contrasts the fluffy, creamy cheesecake filling beautifully. You don’t have to bake the crust. The filling has just 3 main ingredients (cream cheese, powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream), with a little lemon and vanilla added for extra flavor. All of that is blended together and poured into the crust. Refrigerate it for 4 hours (or overnight), and it’s ready to eat! It’s perfectly simple.
If you want to jazz it up just a little, try adding a dollop of whipped cream and some fresh berries. Berries are never more beautiful and delicious than they are at this time of year, and they’re the perfect compliment to this luscious and creamy, no-bake dessert. Enjoy!
