This is The Best No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake I've ever had. Bar None! With a graham cracker crust, creamy cheesecake filling, and cherry pie filling on top.
Making The Best No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake with condensed milk is the best one I've ever eaten. It is so simple to make and absolutely delicious.
As I've said before when I shared my Cherry Poke Cake cherries are one of my favorites. They are so sweet and yummy. Easy to Make Hand-Held Cherry Pies are also great.
After testing this yummy No-Bake Cherry Cheese Cake, It definitely was THE BEST NO-BAKE CHERRY CHEESE-CAKE. I had to put most of it in the freezer. If I didn't put it in the freezer I would continue to eat it until it was gone. I absolutely love cheesecake. I have always been afraid to make real cheesecake, afraid of messing it up.
When I found this no-bake recipe it looked so simple - no-frills just a simple graham cracker crust and a thick sweet filling.
I've always just used a pie pan whenever I made the no-bake cheesecakes or pies with cream cheese and whip cream. I decided since I was venturing into new territory and making a real graham cracker crust, I should try using a springform pan. I am so glad I did the crust came out great. However, if you don't have a springform pan, a pie pan or cake pan will work.
Yes, the fresh fruit of your choice of course makes it healthier. If you want to make a sauce or juice, add a little sugar and allow the fruit to sit in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes it will create a juice.
Definitely, although graham cracker is the most popular choice. An Oreo Crust like I used in my Easy No-Bake Peppermint Cheesecake or a Vanilla Wafer Crust are both also great.
Pointers for Making the Best No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake:
- Make sure your cream cheese is room temperature to avoid getting a lumpy filling.
- Be sure to use full fat sweetened condensed milk -low fat or fat-free will cause filling to not set up.
- Make sure to use plenty of lemon juice - It will help the filling set up.
- Use plenty of cherry pie filling for over-flowing flavor.
