I can’t remember when I first tried cheesecake but when I did I fell in love. All the recipes I ever seen called for putting it in the oven and baking it. To me that was just way to long to wait. I needed something fairly quick and easy, then I found one similar to the one below and began making my own creations.
My favorite to make is No Bake Chocolate Cheese Cake
Ingredients
2 pkg’s cream cheese – softened
1/2 tub of cool whip (sometimes I add a little extra)
1/2 c Sugar
graham crumbs or chocolate crumbs (you can also use ready made graham crusts)
1/2 c chocolate chips (melted)
2 Tbsp cocoa powder
Directions
In a bowl mix together cream cheese, sugar until smooth. Add in cocoa and whip cream until blended and then add melted chocolate chips and stir
.
In a round cake pan prepare cookie crumbs according to pkg. Spread cream cheese mixture over cookie crumbs, sprinkle some crumbs lightly over top and chill for at least 2 hours. ( we don’t wait that long) Top with Whip Cream and serve.
Using the first four ingredients you can create any easy no bake cheese cake you want. The choices are endless.
Variations:
add mini marshmallows and nuts
fresh fruit or pie filling as a toppers
crushed candy of your choice for flavouring
What kind of cheesecake would you create?
