    NO-BAKE ORANGE CREAMSICLE CHEESECAKE — Perfect for those summer days when it’s too hot to cook, this creamy orange desserts is made with Jello, cream cheese and whipped cream, all on a sweet graham cracker crust.


    No-Bake Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake

    Summer just wouldn’t be the same without a few cool, creamy no-bake desserts, and nothing says summer like the flavors of this No-Bake Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake.

    Orange creamsicle is one of my husband’s favorite flavors, and cheesecake is one of his favorite desserts, so I knew he was going to love this! And he did.

    We all loved it, of course! What’s not to love about a sweet, creamy orange cheesecake topping on a graham cracker crust?

    And since I didn’t have to heat up the kitchen, I didn’t mind making this easy dessert at all. As I’m sure you can guess, I didn’t mind eating it either.

    And my husband and boys loved it just as much as I suspected they would.

    No-Bake Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake

    Baked cheesecakes, although decadently delicious, can sometimes be a little tricky. That’s why I love no-bake cheesecake so much.

    You don’t have to worry about water baths, over-cooking, or cracked tops. And if you ask me, no-bake cheesecakes are just as smooth, creamy and delicious as their baked counterparts.

    Not that I don’t love a classic baked cheesecake too, but for hot summer days, this cool, no-bake version really hits the spot!  All you need is a dollop of whipped cream for garnish. 

    You don’t even have to turn on your oven to bake the graham cracker crust. Just pop it in the freezer while you whip up the orange creamsicle filling.

    This No-Bake Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake was a huge hit at my house, and I know we’ll be enjoying it for many more summers to come.


    Be sure to save this No-Bake Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake recipe to your favorite Pinterest board for later.
