You can indulge in a creamy cheesecake without turning on the oven. Today, I have a delightful no bake cheesecake in a cup. Embrace the velvety texture of this delectable dessert with no baking required.

Captivate your taste buds with this easy version that has a base made from cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vaanilla that is blened together. Then add in some instant cheesecake pudding mix and milk. Last is to fold in some light and fluffy Cool Whip to creat the filling for this no bake cheesecake in a cup.

The crust is made by mixing graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar. Spoon some of the mixture into the bottom of some clear plastic cups. You can even use mason jars if you prefer. I kept it inexpensive with cute stemmed clear plastic cups that I found at the Dollar store. However, you can also find similar cups on Amazon. You want them around 5 ounces. However, you could use conatiners up to 8 ounces. I don’t recommend going any bigger.

Add some of the crust mixture into the bottom of each cup. Then press the crust down. I use a cup that is smaller in diamerter to press the crust down. You can also use a tart tamper if you happen to have one. Then I ise a cookie scoop to evenly divide the cheesecake mixture between all of the cups.

Then use a spoon or offset spatula to spread the top of the cheesecake out evenly. At this point, they need to go into the refridgerator for 2 hours before serving. When ready to serve top with ie filling or fresh fruit. Both cherry pie filling and fresh diced strawberries are a couple of our favorite toppings for these.
