NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE
This Thanksgiving dessert is super easy and takes just 20 minutes to prep. A creamy pumpkin infused cheesecake filling in a graham cracker crust will be the hit of your holiday feast.
INGREDIENT OPTIONS:
- Using salted butter instead of unsalted butter is doable but may cause the crust to have a slightly saltier flavor.
- Use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar for a more intense flavor.
- Use original or honey graham crackers and add a teaspoon of cinnamon instead of cinnamon graham crackers.
- Add more pumpkin pie spice if preferred.
PREPARATION AND SERVING TIPS:
- Be sure the cream cheese and sugar mixture is very smooth with no lumps before you start to mix in the pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice or you’ll end up with a lumpy cheesecake.
- Firmly press the crust to ensure it will not crumble apart when serving.
- Serve cheesecake chilled, topped with whipped cream and cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice.
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
- Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Store covered with plastic wrap and foil in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw before serving
