How to Make Heavenly No Bake Cheesecake Delight
Making this delightful dessert is as easy as 1-2-3. You start by making the crust, then the filling and finally assemble everything together before chilling it. Just follow these steps:
Ingredients:
For the Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream
Topping Options:
Fresh berries
Chocolate shavings
Caramel or fruit sauce
Directions:
Start by making the crust. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Stir in melted butter until the mixture is well combined. Then, press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and set it aside.
Next, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until it becomes smooth and creamy. Afterward, add the vanilla extract and mix well. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks. Then, gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until it is thoroughly combined.
Once the filling is ready, it’s time to assemble the cheesecake. Pour the filling over the prepared crust, making sure it’s smoothed out on top. Then, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until it has set.
Finally, once the cheesecake has hardened, you can serve it. Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and garnish it with your choice of toppings.
