Sweet cherries on top of a creamy cheesecake with an oreo cookie crust. This No Bake Cherry Cheesecake is so unbelievably easy to make, and only takes 30 minutes!  

No Bake Cherry Cheesecake 4

Hello, I’m Jacqui from DishingDelish.com! I’m a fun-loving gluten free cook who’s passionate about sharing easy homemade recipes. During the day I work as a full-time food scientist in Tampa, but at night I’m a chef, food photographer, and writer.  I hope you stop by and visit me at DishingDelish.com, where you’ll find recipes of all kinds that I know you’re going to love!

Let me tell you a few things about this particular cheesecake.

First, it’s really, really good. I mean eat-the-entire-thing-with-a-fork (not that I do that…) kind of good.

Second, your guests will probably assume that you spent hours baking it. It’s ok, we’ll keep this recipe our little secret. If you’re really intent on baking, you may like my Easy White Chocolate Strawberry Cheesecake.

Third, my fiancé dropped mine on the floor after the photoshoot, and it was very distressing.

I mean, I’m finishing off a piece of cheesecake while I type this (which I promise I took beforehand, it’s not floor-cake), but I like knowing that there’s still something waiting for me later.

A sweet No Bake Cherry Cheesecake with my name on it, in the very near future. A delicious payoff for all of the 30 minutes I spent in the kitchen making it.

Or, you know, dinner tomorrow. Whatever. 

Alas…

But you know what? It’s totally ok! Because this recipe happens to be so ridiculously easy and quick that I’m going to make another one after work tomorrow.

Did I mention this dessert is also gluten free? You can use regular Oreos for this recipe, but I used gluten free “Oreos” (glutino brand) as a replacement for this one. You can also use any berry for the topping, like blueberry, strawberry, or raspberry. Simply sub in the same amount of fruit for the cherries.

If you’re looking for a lighter gluten free dessert, you may also want to check out my Gluten Free Lemon Poppy Seed Angel Food Cake.

Because No Bake Cherry Cheesecake only takes about 30 minutes to make, including whipping my own cream, I have no problem tackling this dessert on a work night!

And then I will have many cheesecakes.

And life will make sense again. ♡

For the Crust

Instructions

For the Crust

  • Grease a 9-inch springform pan and set aside.
  • In a bowl mix together crushed Oreos and melted butter.
  • Press evenly into bottom of springform pan.

For the Filling

  • In a stand mixer beat together cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth. Place into a second bowl and set aside.
  • With a clean bowl in a stand mixer, add whipping cream and cream of tar tar. Whip on med-low until it forms stiff peaks (about 3-5 minutes).

You can sub in gluten free chocolate "oreo" cookies (like glutino) for the same amount in this recipe.
If you don't have a stand mixer, an electric hand mixer should work.
