Description

This No-Bake Summer Berry and Peach Cheesecake is a refreshing and easy-to-make dessert combining the vibrant flavors of summer fruits and a creamy cheesecake filling. It’s perfect for hot summer days when you don’t want to turn on the oven.


Ingredients

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup melted butter

16 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups heavy cream

1 cup fresh peaches, diced

1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

2 tablespoons honey (optional)


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together until well combined. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Chill in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then fold it gently into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  4. Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the graham cracker crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
  5. Meanwhile, prepare the fruit topping by tossing the diced peaches and mixed berries together in a bowl. Drizzle with honey if desired for extra sweetness.
  6. Once the cheesecake has set, remove it from the fridge and top with the fresh fruit mixture just before serving.

Notes

  1. Crust Alternatives: Use gluten-free graham crackers or a nut-based crust for a gluten-free version.
  2. Fruit Toppings: Experiment with different fruits such as mangoes, strawberries, or blackberries.
  3. Flavor Twist: Add lemon zest or juice to the cream cheese mixture for a citrusy kick.
  4. Dairy-Free: Swap the cream cheese and heavy cream for dairy-free alternatives like coconut cream or plant-based cream cheese.
