I love baking, but there are times that I need a super easy dessert that doesn’t involve the oven. I have done a few ice box pies and no-bake pies but I have never attempted a no-bake cheesecake or even a normal cheese cake! So when I was given a challenge to try a no-bake cheesecake, I was really nervous but as you will see, this dessert is not only super easy to make BUT it is so good. I cannot wait to make it again.
No-Bake Chocolate Chip Cheesecake
Free printable recipe here.
Ingredients:
Pre-made chocolate pie crust
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
8 ounces of whipped topping, thawed
1 cup mini chocolate chips
Chocolate syrup
Extra chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Add softened cream cheese and sugar to a medium mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer combine cheese and sugar until smooth.
2. Once smooth, stir in whipped topping. I did this with a spatula, you do not need to use the mixer for this.
3. Once whipped topping is combined into mixture, add chocolate chips. Stir again until chocolate chips are mixed through out the mixture.
4. Spread mixture into the pie crust, this mixture should be thick.
5. Before enjoying this delicious treat, refrigerate for at least 3 hours. I set mine up over night.
6. When ready to serve slice into pieces and top each piece of cheesecake with some chocolate syrup and a few chocolate chips. ENJOY!!!
This was such a great dessert and I loved that I could whip it together quickly the night before our event. It was a hit and even with out it being a baked cheesecake it had a great cheesecake consistency which I was a bit worried about when making it.
What is your favorite no-bake dessert to prepare for friends and family?
Chocolate and more chocolate, plus cheese. That does sound delicious and thankfully not too hard. Thanks for the great recipe!
This sounds yummy. I live in SoCal, and it's already got enough here that using the oven a lot is too hot. Desserts that don't require baking are really nice to have this time of year.
Wow I cant believe this is no bake! Looks really good. I am a big cheesecake fan I would love to try this!
I usually make a peanut butter pie because it is a no bake pie and so yummy. We have always been a fan of cheesecake as well so this is going to have to get tried at my home really soon. I am sure there will be no complaints or left overs!
I have never made my own cheesecake. This is very simple and so quick. Thank you for sharing
So you basically had my attention at No Bake since I stink at all things baked but this actually looks like something I could not only make myself but absolutely impress my family with! Thanks for sharing!
This looks like an amazing cheesecake.
