A Creamy No-Bake Spiced Pear Cheesecake Recipe
This No-Bake Spiced Pear Cheesecake features a velvety cream cheese filling adorned with sweet, spiced pears, all resting on a buttery graham cracker crust. The combination of spices gives it a warm, inviting taste that pairs beautifully with the creamy texture.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 medium pears, peeled and diced
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer.
- Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream and vanilla extract until peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well blended.
- Combine with Pears: In another bowl, toss the diced pears with cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and a pinch of salt. Fold the spiced pears gently into the cheesecake mixture.
- Assemble: Pour the filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Serve: Once set, carefully release the sides of the springform pan. Slice and serve chilled, optionally garnished with additional spiced pear slices on top.
