Irresistible No-Bake Macadamia Nut Cheesecake Recipe

This No-Bake Macadamia Nut Cheesecake features a creamy and velvety filling made with cream cheese and whipped cream, complemented by the nutty flavor of macadamia nuts. It’s set in a buttery graham cracker crust that adds a satisfying crunch to every bite.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, chopped
  • Extra macadamia nuts for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until the crumbs are well-coated. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer.
  2. Make the Filling: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  3. Add Nuts: Stir in the chopped macadamia nuts into the filling mixture, reserving a few for garnish.
  4. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Top with reserved macadamia nuts.
  5. Chill: Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
  6. Serve: Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Slice the cheesecake and serve chilled, garnished with extra macadamia nuts if desired.
