No-Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 cup milk + 1 tablespoon divided
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 ounces whipped topping e.g., Cool Whip, divided
- 1 graham cracker crust
- 15 ounces pumpkin puree 1 can
- 2 boxes instant vanilla pudding mix 3.4 ounces each
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Layer: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1 tablespoon of milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in half of the whipped topping and spread this mixture evenly into the graham cracker crust.
- Make the Pumpkin Layer: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, pumpkin puree, instant vanilla pudding mixes, ground cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice until creamy and smooth. Spread this mixture over the cream cheese layer in the crust.
- Top and Chill: Spread the remaining half of the whipped topping over the pumpkin layer. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours to allow it to set.
- Serve: Once chilled and set, slice the cheesecake and serve. Optionally, garnish with additional whipped topping or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Made the vegan no-bake pumpkin pie last night, and wow! didn’t think i’d like a vegan dessert this much. any tips to make the filling a little thicker, though? mine was kinda soft.
okay, real talk… are the keto no-bake pumpkin cheesecakes actually good? or do they taste like “diet” desserts? 😅 not into “healthy” desserts unless they’re still yummy!
lol i feel you! i made them last week, and they’re super creamy and flavorful. you wouldn’t even know they’re keto. my non-keto friends couldn’t stop eating them!
yes! totally agree. they’re my go-to when i want something indulgent but low-carb. add a little extra cinnamon if you want to amp up the flavor!
Hey, has anyone tried the no-bake pumpkin cheesecake with a nutty crust? I’m curious if the crust actually holds up, or does it crumble when you try to slice it? I need something that looks good on a plate for a potluck!
Lila, I’ve made it before! The crust holds up pretty well, but I’d say it’s best if you chill it for a solid few hours. That way, it firms up nicely and slices like a dream!
