How to make No Bake Cherry Cheesecake?

This simple three layer dessert really is the best and easiest way to make a no bake dessert for a crowd. It’s like a classic cherry cheesecake recipe but with a Oreo cookie crust!

Make Crust: Melt your butter and Oreos and press them into the bottom of a 9 inch springform

Make the filling: Make sure your cream cheese is room temperature and your whipped topping is thawed. Mix the cream cheese with sugar and vanilla until smooth then fold in whipped cream.

Cherries: Top with cherry pie filling, then chill to set.

Variation and Substitution Ideas:

Pie Filling : Although this recipe is called cherry cheesecake pie you can substitute the pie filling with any kind you want. There are lots of options in the store like strawberry, mixed berry, and blackberry.

Can I Use a Regular Graham Cracker Crust?

Yes, if you don’t want to use Oreos you can use a classic graham cracker crust. Just make it as normal and then press it into the pan to make a pressed crust.

Can I Use Canned Cherry Pie Filling Instead of Homemade?

Yes, if you want to cut a corner and skip the homemade cherry filling, go ahead. Of course, it will change the flavor a bit but I get if you don’t want the extra steps of making the filling homemade. In that case, buy a can or two and use that instead of homemade. Load up as many or little cherry topping as you would like.

I make this for my own family and family gatherings. If you have a large family at holidays or celebrations you might want to make two. It goes fast! It doesn’t take much time for the cheesecake to set, so it’s a great dessert. By using cherry pie filling, cream cheese, and cool whip you have an easy dessert that will feed a crowd all summer long! Enjoy!
