Using a prepared graham cracker pie crust saves so much time and effort, but of course you are welcome to make your own. The no-bake cheesecake portion is cream cheese, whipped topping, and sugar. Top with your favorite can of pie filling and you have a winning no bake cheesecake recipe.
This pie recipe came from my mom who is famous for her easy cheesecakes. A long-time favorite is her Mini Cheesecakes in a Dessert Bar. This is another of her easy dessert recipes that we enjoy making often. She has made this many times for bake sales, benefit auctions, our family and gatherings of friends because people ask for it!
We like the pie shape because that’s how the graham cracker crust can be purchased, but this cheesecake filling can easily be spread over a homemade crust in a square pan.
My husband said this recipe is the better homemade version of a box of Jello no-bake cheesecake.
