Strawberry Cheesecake EASY NO BAKE

This EASY No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake is the perfect dessert for those warm days when you don't want to turn on the oven. It starts with a buttery digestive or graham cracker crust that’s super easy to make - just mix crushed digestives or graham crackers with a bit of sugar and melted butter, then press it into the bottom of a spring form pan and pop it in the fridge to set.
The filling is a dreamy blend of creamy goodness. Mix softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla for sweetness and flavor. To make it extra light and fluffy, fold in some whipped cream. Fresh, chopped strawberries add bursts of juicy sweetness to every bite. To help it hold its shape, there's a bit of gelatin mixed in - don’t worry, it's easy to work with and makes the cheesecake slice beautifully.
Once you've mixed the filling, spread it over the chilled crust and smooth it out. Let the cheesecake chill in the fridge for a few hours or overnight if you can wait that long. The filling creates a luscious, creamy texture that’s simply irresistible.
Just before serving, top the cheesecake with fresh strawberries. The topping adds a bright, fruity finish that pairs perfectly with the creamy filling and crunchy crust. Slice it up, serve, and watch it disappear - this cheesecake will surely be a hit with everyone!

I have a cook book that is dedicated to no-bake desserts. This recipe is really simple compared to a lot of the recipes in my book. I do have a 9" springform pan, but it is a square one. I like a square pan; you just cut 3" squares. This recipe is a real goer because of the lack of fuss. Thanks, Rik!!!
