EASTER CHEESECAKE RECIPE

I am so happy to share the recipe with you!!

I don’t mean to brag or anything, but this No-Bake Easter  Cheesecake is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G, and the best part is that it’s super easy to make. Totally stress-free.

Honestly, I think that this Easter version is the cutest cheesecake ever. Well, I may be biased here because cheesecake is my favorite dessert, but who can blame me, right?

You’ll love this No-Bake Easter Cheesecake as it’s rich, dense, creamy, and smooth! Cheesecake perfection in every sense of the word.

KEEPING THIS EASTER CHEESECAKE EGGLESS

I used NILLA Wafer to make the crust. These round, thin, light wafers are perfect to create a yummy crust, and just because the crust is my children’s favorite part, I made it double thick. Yes, you hear me… double! YUM.

To make this cheesecake totally eggless, use NILLA Wafer Reduced Fat. This version does not contain eggs. It worked great. The taste was spot on, so you will never notice the difference.

You can also use a homemade or store-bought graham cracker crust. Check out my How to Make Easy Graham Cracker Crust post.

HOW TO MAKE AN EGGLESS EASTER NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE

Detailed instructions are included in the printable recipe below (scroll down).

WAFER CRUST:

• Mix vanilla wafer crumbs, butter, and sugar in a medium bowl until well blended. Press evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
• Chill crust in the freezer for at least 10 minutes.

EGGLESS CHEESECAKE FILLING:

• Mix the lemon juice and gelatine and let sit for 2 – 3 minutes.
• Beat the cream cheese until smooth, creamy, and free of lumps. Add in the condensed milk a little at a time, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl occasionally. Add in the lemon juice and gelatine mixture, and vanilla.
• Divide the cheesecake into 3 portions (each should be about 2 cups). Add 1- 2 drops of gel food coloring into each portion and mixing until the color is smooth and uniform.
• Spread the first color over the crust; smooth layer with the back of a spoon. Spread the second color on top of the first and then the third on top of the second; smooth the top. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, at least 6 hours, ideally overnight.
• Before unmolding, run a sharp knife between the cheesecake and the side of the pan. Unclasp sides of the pan, and remove cheesecake.
  Decorate with whipped cream and sprinkles, if desired. Serve.

BAKING TIPS

• Plan ahead! As this is a no-bake cheesecake, the cheesecake needs time to set in the fridge, ideally overnight.
• Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature to prevent a lumpy filling.
• While it may be tempting to use bottled lemon juice, fresh lemon juice yields the best results. Your cheesecake will taste brighter and fresher.
• Using a springform pan with a removable base makes it easier to remove the cheesecake to serve.
• For beautiful clean slices, run your knife under hot water before slicing.
• Having trouble pressing your crust evenly? Try using the bottom of a mason jar or mug to press the crust down evenly.
• Be sure to use full-fat cream cheese for the best results.

VARIATIONS

• Instead of whipped cream, decorate the top with shaved white chocolate or add a white chocolate ganache layer.
• To go with the Easter theme, you can also try mini Easter eggs as a topping; be sure to ensure it’s eggless.
