This easy no-bake cheesecake is my go-to recipe when I want cheesecake in a flash. It's as easy as 1-2-3! Top with additional graham cracker crumbs and whipped topping, if desired. I love to share this with friends and family.

### Cook’s Note
You can adjust the amount of vanilla extract to suit your taste.
Lemon extract gives a hint of tartness that I find complements the vanilla. You can leave it out if you prefer plain cheesecake.

Firstly, i loved this and how i made it. Would make again and would reccomend. I used 2 packs of cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, a squeeze of lemon juice, a splash of vanilla, and 8 oz cool whip.This fit fine in my 9in great value Graham cracker crust.I also made a strawberry sauce for the top and that make this amazing.Next time, the only thing id change is using real whipped cream because im a cool whip hater, i just dont like the taste that much and you can slightly taste it in this so id prefer it without.But 10/10 stunning

So tasty! I think next time I would make 2 smaller pies, only because I couldn't get the lid on. Very good and very simple! Bonus points for being a make ahead dessert.

| Readable Markdown | This easy no-bake cheesecake features a smooth, rich, and creamy filling that's impossible to resist. Plus, this recipe doesn't require an oven — so it's perfect for busy holidays when the kitchen is full.
## Easy No-Bake Cheesecake Ingredients
These are the simple ingredients you'll need to make this easy no-bake cheesecake recipe:
**· Cream cheese**: This no-bake cheesecake starts with two packages of cream cheese.
**· Sugar**: A cup of white sugar adds the perfect amount of sweetness.
**· Extracts**: This recipe adds 3 tablespoons vanilla extract to enhance the overall flavor — add as much or as little as you like. Lemon extract is optional, but it adds welcome brightness.
**· Cool Whip**: A container of frozen whipped topping (such as Cool Whip) is the secret ingredient in this [no-bake dessert](https://www.allrecipes.com/no-bake-orange-creamsicle-pie-recipe-11746557).
**· Pie crust**: Use a store-bought graham cracker crust or [make your own at home](https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/12254/graham-cracker-crust-i/).
**· Pie filling**: The recipe calls for a can of strawberry pie filling, but you can use whatever flavor you like.
## How Long Does No-Bake Cheesecake Last?
Stored correctly (in an airtight container in the fridge), this no-bake cheesecake will last for about five days.
## Can You Freeze No-Bake Cheesecake?
Yes, you can freeze no-bake cheesecake. It's a great option if you don't plan to finish it within five days. Wrap the cheesecake in at least one layer of plastic storage wrap, then at least one layer of aluminum foil. Freeze for up to three months, then thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
## Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise
"Absolutely the best airy cheesecake we have ever eaten," raves one Allrecipes community member. "So good I am making another one today. Will use canned strawberries and fresh blueberries!"
"Great recipe," according to [Kanathia Narcisse](https://www.allrecipes.com/cook/5065885). "Just like my grandmother's. I used shortbread cookies for the crust. It was amazing."
"Easy and tasty," says [Gary Cole](https://www.allrecipes.com/cook/1617943). "Didn't have lemon extract, so I used almond. Topped with cherry pie filling. I turned out great. Was a big hit at Thanksgiving."
