How to make easy no bake cheesecake (4 Steps)

Try a no-bake cheesecake if you're craving the cool and creamy dessert but don't want to turn on the oven because it's hot outside. No-bake cheesecakes also are ideal for occasions when you want a special homemade dessert but have a limited amount of time in the kitchen. No-bake cheesecakes have all the tangy flavor and richness of their baked counterparts, so you won't be missing out on taste or texture.

  • 1 package cream cheese, 8 oz., softened
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • Electric or handheld mixer
