Description

This No-Bake Berry Cheesecake is a light and creamy dessert perfect for berry lovers. Featuring a buttery graham cracker crust and a velvety cream cheese filling sweetened just right, it’s topped with a fresh berry medley and whipped topping. The recipe requires no baking, making it an easy and refreshing treat ideal for gatherings or summer celebrations.


Ingredients

Crust

  • 2 Cups Low Fat Graham Cracker Crumbs
  • 6 Tbsp. Butter, melted
  • 3 Tbsp. Sugar

Filling

  • 4 Pkg. (8 oz. each) Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Cream Cheese (Neufchatel), softened
  • 1 Cup Sugar
  • 1 Tub (8 oz.) Cool Whip, thawed

Topping

  • 3 Cups Fresh Berries (blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, and chopped strawberries)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the low fat graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 3 tablespoons sugar. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated with butter. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a springform pan or 9×13 inch dish to form the crust. Refrigerate while preparing the filling to allow it to set.
  2. Make the filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add 1 cup sugar and continue to beat until fully incorporated and smooth, scraping the sides as needed. Fold in the thawed Cool Whip gently using a spatula until combined and fluffy.
  3. Assemble the cheesecake: Pour the cream cheese filling over the chilled crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to firm up.
  4. Add berry topping and serve: Just before serving, evenly spread the fresh berries over the top of the cheesecake. Slice and serve chilled for a refreshing dessert.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for the smoothest filling.
  • Fresh berries can be substituted with frozen, but fresh provides the best texture and flavor.
  • For a richer keto version, consider using full-fat cream cheese and reducing sugar substitutes.
  • This cheesecake is best served within 2 days for optimal freshness.
