No-bake cheesecake in a jar.

No-Bake Cheesecake in a jar If I had to pick a dessert that I make the most, cheesecake would be at the top of that list. The number of mini cheesecake recipes I’ve shared should be pretty telling of how much we enjoy cheesecake in our family. It’s one of those desserts that you can make hundreds of different ways for everyone’s preference. My son doesn’t like fruit on top of his cheesecake, while my daughter would pile every kind of fruit topping she could find. This is why we often make plain mini cheesecakes and let the kids eat them plain or top them with their favorite toppings. Whether that’s chocolate, fruit, or whipped topping. Recently I made no-bake cheesecakes in a jar and they were a big hit! No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake_So as you can see, I didn’t style them in a jar for this picture but this recipe is perfect small mason jars. What made this no-bake cheesecake recipe so special is the crust. You’ll never believe what I used! Instead of a graham cracker crust I used a Fiber One strawberry cheesecake bar. Everyone in our family loved the crumbling crust and extra cheesecake and strawberry flavors. The recipe can also be “lightened” a bit by substituting the cream cheese and COOL Whip for lighter versions. Cookie Bar Crust

Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts! Each member of my family has a specific way of eating it also, so most of the time we do exactly the same and let everyone top it themselves. A lot of times instead of using graham cracker crust we buy a box of vanilla wafers and line the bottom with either whole or crushed. Raspberries are my choice. Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful creative day!
