This cheesecake does not have the density or texture of a traditional cheesecake but it does have a nice combination of flavors. It was a nice finish to our families holiday BBQ. I would suggest doubling the crumb crust ingredients if you want the crust to cover the sides of the cake. I used an 8-1/2" spring form pan and the crust mixture covered only the bottom and a 1/4" up the sides. Personally I found this to be just the right amount of crust. I will make this desert again.

Next time I would leave out the whipped dairy topping or at least cut it in half. I agree that the crust needs doubled to have enough. Read More

Not a real cheesecake in the true sense of the word but a delicious dessert non the less. I reduced the sugar in the cheese mix because we are trying to reduce and it was sweet enough. Read More

Wonderful. I made extra crust to sprinkle over the top. It was actually great even without pineapple topping. Next time I will slice bananas before serving Read More

I'm generally skeptical of no-bake cheesecakes but this one was really good. I did use whipped cream instead of the whipped topping (whipped topping is an abomination!) and the texture was perfect. I think next time I will add some rum to the pineapple topping. Read More

This was one of the best no-bake cheesecake I have ever tried. The flavors go so great together. I made it exactly as written and it was perfect. Great recipe! I will definitely make again! Read More

This recipe is so good!! The only thing I changed (and that is only because i like a generous crust) was double the ingrEdients of the crust and added a few specs of yellow food color to teh pineapple mixture to look more golden as the canned pineapple I was working with was a bit white. It came out awesome for my "Girls Night" and was gone very very quickly... Read More
