This No-Bake Mint Chocolate Cheesecake features a rich, creamy filling infused with refreshing mint and layered over a chocolate cookie crust. It’s chilled to perfection and topped with a smooth chocolate ganache, creating a sweet, refreshing dessert that melts in your mouth.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 2 cups whipped cream or whipped topping
  • 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate, melted
  • Chocolate shavings or mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix the crushed cookies with melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer.
  2. Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and peppermint extract, mixing until well combined.
  3. Fold in the Whipped Cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated, creating a light and fluffy filling.
  4. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the mint chocolate filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top and swirl gently with a knife for a marbled effect.
  5. Chill: Cover the cheesecake and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until set.
  6. Serve: Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Garnish with chocolate shavings or mint leaves if desired. Slice and enjoy your delicious No-Bake Mint Chocolate Cheesecake!
