Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for crust)
- 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.75 cups Powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1 cup Fresh fruit or pie filling (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Stir until well mixed and the crumbs are evenly coated.
Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create the crust. Use the back of a measuring cup to smooth it out. Refrigerate the crust while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2–3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and continue mixing until just combined.
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3–4 minutes.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula until fully incorporated and smooth. Be careful not to overmix to avoid deflating the whipped cream.
Spoon the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set.
Once set, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and transfer to a serving plate. Top with fresh fruit or pie filling of your choice, if desired, before serving.
Slice and enjoy your super easy no-bake cheesecake!
