Easy No-Bake Dessert

I don’t know about you, but when it’s hot outside, I don’t like to turn on the oven and heat up the house. Well, this No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake is perfect for those hot days when you’ve gotta have dessert but don’t want to turn on the oven! OMG! SO good!!!

This dessert only takes a few minutes to whip together and it sits in the fridge until you are ready to serve it. It will be set after a few hours, but it is 100 times better if you can let it refrigerate overnight. It takes a lot of self-restraint, but it is totally worth the wait!

How to Make No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake

To make the cheesecake, start with dissolving strawberry Jello in boiling water. Add strawberry daiquiri mix. Allow it to cool. With a handheld mixer, beat together cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla. Add Jello and mix well. In a separate bowl, whip the evaporated milk until light and fluffy. Carefully mix into the Jello mixture. Combine graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar with butter. Press into the bottom of a 9″x13″ dish. Pour in the cheesecake filling. Chill overnight before serving.

• The secret to getting this cheesecake super light and fluffy is whipped evaporated milk. Have you ever whipped evaporated milk? It is so easy and it really makes this cheesecake shine!! When whipping the evaporated milk, make sure the can is cold and use a large bowl. The evaporated milk expands a lot when whipping.
• Is there alcohol in strawberry daiquiri mix? No. There is no alcohol in the frozen mix.
• Can substitute a packet of (0.30-oz) sugar-free strawberry Jello.
• Feel free to stir in some chopped fresh strawberries into the cheesecake mixture.
• The cheesecake will keep 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator.
• Can No-Bake Lemon Cheesecake be frozen? Yes! After the cheesecake sets, cover the pan with plastic wrap and aluminum foil and freeze. It will keep up to 3 months in the freezer.
