Fresh raspberries, sweetened cream cheese and whipped cream come together in this smooth and creamy frozen treat.

Frozen Raspberry Cheesecake

I don’t know why the idea of a frozen cheesecake never occurred to me before, but this Frozen Raspberry Cheesecake brilliant, and delicious! 

This dessert–made with fresh raspberries–is light, cool and creamy. Which makes it the perfect thing to serve on those hot summer days.

Plus, you don’t have to turn on the oven, which is a big plus! And this cheesecake is so easy to put together!

Baked cheesecakes are always impressive, but they’re also a lot more work, and need to be baked slowly and carefully, and then refrigerated over night.

Honestly, the hardest thing about making this no-bake cheesecake is waiting for it to freeze. And you don’t have to wait over night!

Frozen Raspberry Cheesecake

If you don’t have a spring form pan, a regular pie pan will work in a pinch. It will look a bit more like a pie, but it will still taste like a creamy cheesecake.

And there are so many possibilities for other flavors using different fresh fruit!

I find this cheesecake tastes best when it sits at room temperature for a bit before serving–at least 10 minutes. The longer it’s been frozen, the longer it will need to sit.

Of course, since it is frozen, it can easily be made well ahead of time. So it’s great for summer potlucks and backyard barbecues.

This Frozen Raspberry Cheesecake was a huge hit with my family and I know it’s a dessert we’ll be making often.

Tips for Choosing and Storing Raspberries

Appearance: Look for berries that are bright and uniform in color. Avoid berries that look dull, dark, wrinkled or dried out. Be sure to check the container for crushed or moldy berries–don’t forget to check the bottom too!

Storing: Do not wash raspberries until you are ready to use them. Store them in the container you bought them in, or some type of breathable container. Avoid keeping them in the coldest part of your fridge.

To freeze raspberries, arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place them in the freezer for a few hours, then pour the frozen berries into a large zip-top plastic bag or container. Frozen berries will keep for up to 10 months.

  • Just put it in the freezer. My fresh raspberries were super tart so the finished fillling wasn’t very sweet. So I made additional sweetened whip cream and piped it on top for a little more sweetness. Looks delicious. Can’t what to cut it!

  • Cheesecake sounds delicious

  • Oh boy! I can’t wait to ake this! Our raspberries are almost ripe!

  • Meg Lawson

    Dear miss author!
    I’m a women from Viet Nam, I love everything related to cheese:) And absolutely, i love cheesecake! I find that recipes you recommend is verry easy to make. But I have a bit disundertand about dough. Dough is made by craker combined with melted butter, and it not need to be baked? We will set the dough and fill the creams upper, then all will be frozen, that’s it?
    Hope receive your answer soon!
    Always smiles with the cake!
    Cheers!

    • This is a no bake recipe. You don’t need to bake the crust, just put the cream cheese mixture in, freeze it until the filling (cream cheese mixture) become frozen, then take it out of the pan, cut and serve. If you can’t finish it, keep the remaining portion in the freezer.
