My kitchen has been overrun by sugar and flour in recent weeks. I’ve been working hard over here. I’ve got some great summer dishes for you, including no-bake desserts, ice box cakes, ice cream, popsicles, and cookies. It’s going to be a fantastic summer!
This Triple Berry No-Bake Cheesecake has completely captured my heart. So much so that I prepared it three times in three different ways before settling on the exact recipe. I had a LOT of time to test this cheesecake since I was home alone for a few days. I eventually decided on the third recipe, which was my personal favorite.
No-bake cheesecakes are among my favorite treats to prepare. First and foremost, they could not be simpler. They are also quite adaptable. You can add in your favorite cookie or candy bar, fruit, or extract.
This cheesecake has a lot of lemon zest. I like how the lemon contrasts with the berries. You get a little of sweetness with a hint of tartness.
You may use whichever berries are in season for the berries. I merely sliced the berries into bits the first time, but I didn’t like the look, so I blended them in a food processor, which gave the cheesecake a reddish tinge. I used a few strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries. You’ll need around a cup of pureed berries in total.
I used a conventional graham cracker crust for the crust. Because I am a big crust aficionado, I want my cheesecakes to have a graham cracker edge. This cheesecake would be as delicious with a shortbread crust. Because shortbread has a lot more butter, I would decrease the quantity of butter in half.
There’s also a jar of Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme in this cheesecake. The fluff not only adds sweetness to the cheesecake, but it also helps it keep its form. When you pour the filling into the crust, it is somewhat damp. However, after a couple of hours, the outcome is a creamy, fluffy, and light cheesecake. A classic cheesecake may be heavy at times; this is the polar opposite, which is why it is perfect for summer!

Notes
If you use a store-bought graham cracker crust, you will have excess filling. I recommend putting it in a bowl and using it as a dip! Don’t throw it away!

How do you thicken a no bake cheesecake filling?
In most circumstances, adding gelatin to the cheesecake is the best approach to correct your recipe for a no-bake cheesecake (provided the recipe is not flawed). Gelatin is a natural thickening that may be used to thicken sauces, custards, and other meals.
Why does my no bake cheesecake look like scrambled eggs?
“My cake mixture looks like scrambled eggs!”
When the eggs are cold, the butter might solidify. This may cause the mixture to curdle, giving it the appearance of scrambled eggs.
How do you not overbeat cheesecake?
THE FIX: The most common reason for overbeating your batter is difficulty combining cold components. Bring your components to room temperature ahead of time so that the batter requires little mixing.
Why add whipping cream to cheesecake?
To get a light and airy kind of cheesecake, whisk the egg whites and mix them into the batter. The addition of cream creates a velvety, smooth texture, but too much cream masks the cream cheese taste.
