No Bake Cheesecake
No Bake CheesecakeAnytime I that I have made a Cheesecake I always made a baked one. I guess I had this dumb brain issue that unless it was baked it couldn’t be that good.
Sort of like my issues with No Churn Ice Cream, and we all know how that is going. I just can’t stop making the Stuff!
I came across this No Bake Cheesecake from a friend of mine and I decided to give it a go. I was in the supermarket and I saw a package with a mixture of half blueberries and half raspberries. So I bought them.
I am not a berry person, and never have been. But as a topping for a dessert, oh yeah I can do that.
So what did I do? That’s right called my healthy-she-knows-her-berries daughter. My question was “So do raspberries and blueberries go good together”? “As in cooked together”?
She proceeded to tell me that they were an amazing combination, one of her favourites. So there you go, this No Bake Mixed Berry Cheesecake had a topping.
This post was written back on June 16, 2016 and since that time I think I have made this cheesecake more times than I can count. My Italian friends and family go crazy for this cheesecake.
Since I decided to make it yet again and this time update the post for it I decided to add a few blueberries to the mix. And yes they go really well too!
How to make a No Bake Cheesecake
- Mix crumbs and melted butter and place in the bottom of pan and refrigerate.
- Whip cream until stiff.
- Beat together cream cheese, sugar and vanilla.
- Fold cream cheese mixture into the whipped cream.
- Place cheesecake mixture on top of crumb crust and refrigerate for at least 5 hours or even better over night.
- Slice and top with Berry filling. Absolutely Delicious.
But seriously this is one of the best cheesecakes I have ever tasted and believe me I have tasted a few!! It is light and creamy and is the best No Bake Cheesecake ever! Try it and let me know.
No Bake Berry Cheesecake
Would you believe the Cheesecake filling has only 4 ingredients. Naturally I made a cookie base and I used digestive cookies instead of graham crumbs.
If you have never used digestive cookies before, give it a try and let me know. It’s become my new No Bake crumb base. And that sauce, the mixture of Blueberries and Raspberries is so delicious. That was back in 2016 and now ….
I discovered that lady finger crumbs make an amazing base. Just place the cookies in a food processor or blender and grind them up. Something different for a change.

Kristy Marie Rockney says
I have made this several times. This is absolutely the best. This time I’m going to use a little bit of gelatin to make it a bit thicker. When looking for a recipe I go to this website first. Just to see if it might be available. Thank you so much. This sounds silly over such a simple recipe but you have really broaden my horizon in so many ways
Rosemary says
Hi Kristy, thanks so much, that is so nice to hear so glad you enjoy the recipes. Have a great week.
Kelly says
Hi! I just made this tonight, for a birthday tomorrow, and was wondering if the filling is supposed to be lumpy or smooth after you fold the cream cheese mixture into the whipped cream? Mine was lumpy.
Rosemary says
Hi Kelly, it shouldn’t be lumpy, the folding should smooth it out. It should taste good though.
Mary says
Hi Rosemary,
I love the cheesecake but I have a question, can you make this cake 2 days in advance?
Rosemary says
Hi Mary, I wouldn’t make it 2 days maybe one but it does come together so quickly. 🙂
Aishath says

Hi Aishath, so glad you and everyone loved it. We love it too and so easy. Have a great day.
Judy Smith says
Rosemary,
Made this cheesecake for Mothers Day……..Awesome according to my 8 year old granddaughter! Everybody loved it and I will be making this quite often. It is such a light cheesecake, I used butter cookies for the base which everyone agreed was better than graham crackers.
Rosemary says
Hi Judy, thanks so much so glad everyone loved it especially your granddaughter. 🙂 Every time friends come over they request this cheesecake and that is the exact reason we love it because it is so light. Have a great week.

Liz says
I’ve been loving no bake desserts lately because I’m tired of heating up the oven! This recipe is great!
Rosemary says
Hi Liz, thanks. I know no bake are the best. 🙂
christina says
I’m surprised the average review isn’t higher for this recipe. It’s fantastic! I am actually writing this review after coming back to the recipe to make the second cheesecake in two weeks. Delicious and super easy. What’s not to love about this? I subbed oreo cookies for the graham crackers/digestives just because I had oreos in the pantry (and…I love an oreo crust with cheesecake….) but otherwise tweaked nothing. Oh and well last time I had blueberries and rasberries, but this time I have blackberries and peaches. Spoiler alert, I’m pretty sure this one is going to be fab too.
Thanks also for listing the ingredients in grams. I live in NZ and converting everything is a tiny little pain I’m grateful to avoid this time.
Rosemary says
Hi Christina, thanks so much, I feel that way about this and my other recipes lol. So glad you enjoyed it. Happy New Year.

Rosemary says
Hi Liz, I agree. It gets so hot here, turning on the oven is a killer.
erica says
can I make the fruit topping from the night before or would it be better if I made it in the morning?
Rosemary says
Hi Erica, sure you can make it the night before just keep it refrigerated until you use it.

What are “digestive cookies”. Here in the USA we don’t have anything called that
Rosemary says
Hi Cindi, then graham cracker crumbs are good too. Hope that helps.

Marisa Franca @ All Our Way says
Great recipe!! We have made no-bake cheesecake for years but then I graduated to baked. They both are delicious!! I love the touch of the berries to it. Not only does it make a beautiful photo but it adds another dimension to the dessert. BTW, do you have your oven yet?? Buon fin setimana.
Rosemary says
Thanks Marisa, no bake cheesecake my new favourite. No no oven yet. But soon.
