As we head into summer, I am always looking for great no bake recipes that do not take a lot of time to prepare. The windows in our house do not really get any good airflow.
So when it is over 85 degrees in my kitchen, I do not want to spend too much time in the kitchen during the day. Although my air conditioner gets plenty of work during the summer months because I can't stay away from baking for too long.
I made these No Bake Strawberry Cheesecakes about a year and a half ago, and we loved them. I finally got around to making a new version and remembered right away why I loved them so much. You just might be seeing more variations of these throughout the summer.
All you need is a blender to whip these bad boys up. Don't you love when a recipe doesn't dirty the whole kitchen? Ok, I did use 2 other small bowls too. But seriously, the blender is all you will need to make the cheesecake. Drop everything in and pulse a few times, and you will have instant cheesecake. Well, it will be cheesecake after you refrigerate it for a few hours.
I love making these up right before bed time and putting them in the refrigerator. They are ready to be eaten first thing in the morning...if that's how you roll. They are made with fruit, cottage cheese, and yogurt, so I think these totally equal breakfast food. Hey, it's better than eating some of this PB Snickers Cheesecake Pie for breakfast, right?

Hi, Barbara. I actually do not calculate those values for my recipes. There are quite a few online sites that you can copy and paste the recipe into if you are interested in knowing what's in a recipe.

I made these, and they were GREAT! Thank you for such a wonderful no bake recipe!! They set great in the fridge, and I only had to wait about 30 minutes! Unfortunately, I don't think my food processor knows the meaning of smooth though! My cottage cheese was still gritted a bit - but I like the texture.
Sadly, I seem to missing more of the peachy flavor in it, even though I followed straight down to the end of the recipe. Maybe I'll try imitation peach flavoring instead, or a peach jam!
My mom also suggested for those of you who love a spice kick, (and I did this) - sprinkle some cinnamon and nutmeg on top!! 🙂

I think dorothy (crazy for crust) might have.

Can you use graham cracker crumbs? Also I have canned peaches, and a no bake cheesecake mix will that work? Also, july is "national" ice cream moth. Please re-post the 26 ice cream recipes?
Jocelyn Brubaker
Yes, you can use graham cracker crumbs. I think the no bake and canned peaches would work...just cut the peaches into very tiny pieces. I don't know what ice cream round up you are looking for because I didn't post it. Sorry!

I pinned the no bake peach cheesecake! Looks great and hopefully will do for our 4th of July get together.
