Ultimate No-Bake Cherry Chocolate Cheesecake Recipe

This No-Bake Cherry Chocolate Cheesecake features a velvety chocolate filling made with cream cheese and whipped cream, layered on a crunchy chocolate cookie crust. The cherry topping adds a refreshing burst of flavor, making every bite a delightful balance of sweet and tart.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 16 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1 cup cherry pie filling or fresh cherries
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust.
2. Make the Filling: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and creamy.
3. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the chocolate cheesecake filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
4. Add the Topping: Once the cheesecake is set, spread the cherry pie filling on top. If using fresh cherries, you can slice and arrange them decoratively on the cheesecake.
5. Serve: Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan, slice the cheesecake, and serve chilled. Garnish with cocoa powder if desired.
