Easy No-Bake Cheesecake

I remember eating cheesecake at a young age and my love of that marvelous dessert started. We have many recipes made with cream cheese, but I will be honest, I love just simple cheesecake. My Grandma used to make this recipe. It only calls for 4 ingredients and a graham cracker crust. It is so easy and so delicious!

    I make that same cheescake but without the cool whip. That is my family favorite cheescake. I some times use Amertto in place of the lemon juice.

        I think she means "Amaretto," the Italian almond flavored liquer.

    I love this recipe, it's my favorite and most creamy cheesecake recipe. I somehow found this recipe years ago (on pinterest maybe?), it's been saved in my phone for at least 3 years. The only time it didn't turn out perfectly for me was when I didn't let the cream cheese and cool whip get to room temp, so don't skip that step! Thank you for the easiest and best cheesecake recipe ever!

    Can I add chocolate chips and leave out lemon juice?

      Hi Ruth. We have not made this cheesecake leaving out the lemon juice. It might not be as flavorful. You can definitely add in chocolate chips.

    Two thumbs up on this recipe according to my 4-year-old grand-daughter. I had two store-bought graham cracker crusts so I doubled the recipe. This was a good mistake because I had so much leftover. I froze some for later and I swirled some caramel sauce with the rest of it. I am serving it with graham cracker sticks for my grandkids tonight.
