THE Easiest, Most Delicious, No-Bake Cheesecake #Yum!

AND, My Marry Me Cheesecake Recipe Was Featured On 
The Talk, with Sheryl Underwood and Pals! Yay!! Yum! 


Marry Me Cheesecake - lol! 

And thank you for buying through me - I love you for supporting me like that! I get a wee something from the ads on my blog! : ) (AND, I get you the best deals, so, Win-Win!)

No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake: that's right, no baking... and you can make a low-fat version of this light and delicious cheesecake, too... : )  And, yep, this is my 'Marry Me' Cheesecake... I only serve it to a man I would want to marry, since they'll just follow you around after they've tried this deeelicious little slice of heaven, anyway, so don't waste it on people you don't already love! lol! xoxo! : )

And no eggs! : )

And, if you want to make Cheesecake Mousse - is so lovely and delicious, too! 

Sometimes  make mah' fave Cherry Cheesecake in a giant 9" X 13" pan - then you can cut it into squares - yum! 

Here I am... I just made this delicious, light and creamy, Cherry Cheesecake, last night, so we could have it for breakfast, today... I'm not a believer in 'dessert' after a great big meal, so much as I am very much a believer in having a special treat in the morning, then you'll have all day to 'burn it off', as it were! lol!  Plus, that sounds like a reasonably logical reason for me to have cheesecake in the morning, right?? hahaha!

It only takes about 20 minutes, tops, to make this No-Bake Cheesecake. This is the first time I've made the cheesecake in a 9" X 13" pan... I usually use a 10" springform pan, you know, the kind with the removable outside edge... but this time, I wanted to be able to serve squares, so a rectangular shaped pan would be better, right?  Well, turned out, it was impossible to cut a little square of this craaazy delicious cheesecake, so Cara and I each had a nice big piece each for breakfast, this morning!! lol!  Vas Vantastique!!





Mmmm... Cherry Cheesecake! This is my favorite Cheesecake Recipe – really light and delicious!
We had the Cherry Cheesecake with Dinner, (a loong time ago, when Aidan was little.. he's 11, now, and still loooves this cheesecake!)-- Aidan wanted to have it 'For Dinner', which was pretty funny! Not all of it, of course, because it's light but 'rich', so you only need a wee slice... or two!

Anyway, here are some pictures of My Favorite Cherry Cheesecake -- try it when you get a chance -- you'll love it!

(Actually, I just need a minute to go get my Camera, Get them into my Computer -- lots of pushing and shoving, as you can well imagine...! ha,ha,ha), Name them, then put them on the Site -- that's what takes me sooo long, sometimes! Be right baaack!)

So if there's any question of whether your Family will love a tasty Cheesecake, here's your answer in Aidan's cute little face!

I just met you and I love you! haha! 

You can take this same 'little boy' face and project it onto the face of any grown male, and whammo, everybody's happy!! ha,ha,ha! And the Chicks dig it, too! ha,ha,ha!


























Graham Crust:
1 1/2 Cups Graham Crumbs
1/3 Cup Sugar
½ Cup Butter, melted

Press into pan, bake at 350 for 15 minutes : )
Let that cool in the fridge : )

Cheesecake Filling:
2 - 8oz packages of Cream Cheese
1 Cup of Whipping Cream (a medium-sized container), or One pkg of Dream Whip(the Low-Fat version!)
1 small pkg of Mini-marshmallows
1 tbsp. Lemon Juice (optional)
1 tsp. Vanilla

This is a really easy recipe – takes about 20 minutes to make.


Step 1: Mix the Graham Crumbs and Sugar together. Melt Butter in the Microwave – about 1 minute on High. Stir all together, then press into Cheesecake pan, or any other available baking dish!

Press into pan, bake at 350 for 15 minutes : )
Let that cool in the fridge : )

Step 2: In a big bowl, cut the Cream Cheese into squares – nothing fancy, just make smaller ‘units’. Let that ‘warm up’ while you Whip the Whipping Cream. I often just put the Cut pieces of Cream cheese into the microwave for 45 seconds to soften it.

Quick Tip: Remember to use a cold bowl and beaters for your mixer – pop them in the Freezer for a few minutes while you’re getting your ingredients together.

Step 3: In a separate large plastic bowl, pour in the mini-marshmallows. Put the Marshmallows into the Microwave for one minute to melt it. Quickly give the melted marshmallows a good stir to make it nice and smooth.

Step 4: Use your Beater on Low to soften the Cream Cheese. Pour in the melted marshmallows and blend until smooth. Blend in the Vanilla and the Lemon Juice.

Step 5: Whip the Cream - here's a little Whipping Cream Tip - sprinkle a little bit of sugar into the bowl of Whip Cream while you are beating it. Fold in the Whipped Cream, then pour onto the Graham Crust. Pop in the Refrigerator for a few hours, or until you can’t wait anymore!  I had some extra cheesecake cream filling, today, so I put some in a Wine Glass - very pretty!  You could serve it like that at a nice dinner party - or just for fun for yourself and anyone else you love! lol! 

Step 6: Top with Fresh Berries or your favorite Pie Filling.

My favorite Topping is One Tin of Cherry Pie Filling, and One Tin of Bing Cherries, drained. Mix the two together and you'll have one of the most delicious Cheesecakes you've ever tasted!

Sometimes, if I'm having a lot of guests over, I'll leave the cheesecake 'plain' (fruitless, if you will! lol!), and I'll just put a variety of flavors on the table (cherries, strawberries, blueberries, peaches... or whatever is in season), and everyone chooses their favorite, adds their own topping. Enjoy!

Using the Low-Fat versions of the Cream Cheese and the Dream Whip with Low-Fat Milk will make this a nice lower calorie treat, and won’t compromise the taste. Fresh Fruit will make it even better!

I usually Double the Recipe, so the Cheesecake is really huge! Just Double the Filling part.


Happy Cooking -- And Eating! Ailsa!


Yum!  I had some extra cheesecake cream filling, since I used a glass pie plate, today, for the Cheesecake, so I thought I'd put this extra wee bit in a wine glass - looks so pretty!  

This would make a very nice low-cal dessert, especially if you use the low-fat cream cheese and Dream Whip with 1% milk (or Skim milk, depending on what you usually use), then just add whatever fruit you like, later.  

If you were making these for a dinner party, or fancy lunch, you could put out a variety of fruit toppings for yourself and your lovely guests! : )  Happy Eating!! Ailsa xox!

I loove flowers, all sorts of flowers, but I am particularly fond of Spring Flowers, maybe because I am a Pisces, and Spring is my time of year, and the lovely Spring Flowers are so lovely to see after a long winter... I just love them, and maybe you do, too, or you know someone who does : )





Reese's Peanut Butter Squares
Make the Graham Cracker Crust Reese's 🥜Spread ChocolateChips Mini-Marshmallows Omg, the texture is amazing, too😘🥳🥳🥳

Oh, man, I just made this recipe up, they're in the fridge, right now - sooo delightful, I can't even tell you - watch out not to leave the Reese's Spread in the microwave too long, it'll burn (might work in under a minute - watch it, very closely) - I learned that the hard way, but I just removed the burn-y bit, carefully 'spread' what I had left on the Graham Cracker Crumb Base (recipe above), poured on some chocolate chips, then I poured on a layer of mini-marshmallows, baked about 20 minutes - keep an eye on it, and the marshmallows don't have to look toasty - if you have a super trustworthy broiler, you could put that on for a minute or two, but is totally unnecessary, they're crazy-delicious in the regular oven - the marshmallows will be delightfully chewy - and the base will have a texture you will lose your mind over - is soooo good! Ah'Yum!









Yum!! You' a'gonna looove these delightful little squares! 

Leave no crumb behind - the crumbs are deeelishush! Omg, this is so crazy-good! lol! 

I would maybe try mixing the graham crumbs, sugar, butter and maybe add the Reese's Spread directly to that mix - something to think about... is fun to try new things, as long as they work out, and are edible - and when you're playing with your food, and it turns out to be as delicious as you thought it would? Win-Win, Baby!! 

So today I tried my own version of the Reese's Peanut Butter Squares, meaning, I just used regular peanut butter, since i'm all out of the Reese's Peanut Butter spread, which is deeelish, in and of itself - FYI ; )


Peanut Butter Squares 
Makes 70 Squares
Crazy-Easy! lol!


1 cup of Peanut Butter
1/2 cup butter OR margarine, melt for 1 minute (1:00 minute) in the microwave
1 tsp of Vanilla
1 1/2 - 2 cups of Graham Cracker Crumbs
1 cup Icing Sugar

(Optional - 1/3 cup Sugar)

Chocolate Chips for the topping : )




This is gonna come together so quickly, you'll be shocked - and thrilled - yippee, an easy recipe that really works! Yahoo! : )

Put the block of Margarine, or the butter, whichever you prefer (next time I'll make it with the butter, see if you can tell any difference), but pop the 1/2 cup of margarine in the microwave, in a large microwave-safe bowl, for 1:00 minute -

Here's the amazing thing - you won't even need to heat up the peanut butter, it'll melt right into the melted butter or margarine - and add in 1 tsp of Vanilla - I just use a capful of Vanilla : )

Give that a good stir, then add in the Graham Cracker crumbs and the Icing Sugar - you can add the extra regular sugar, if you want to try that, too...

Press that into the pan - I always use Parchment Paper, because you can pick the whole thing up, very carefully, and is very easy to cut into squares... but you can easily press this into a 9" X 13" pan, and it almost filled a regular sized cookie tray...

Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes - check it at 15 minutes, it'll rise, which surprised me, since, nothing in the recipe would suggest it would rise, right? Anyway, don't worry about that, it'll go back down and be dense when it's cooled in the fridge (like some stoooopid peoples you might knows? hahaha! Nooo... who said that? lol!)

Pour on some Chocolate Chips - just randomly, the plan is to put this back into the oven for 1 or 2 minutes, that's plenty of time to melt the chocolate, then just take a knife and gently spread the chocolate all over, cover completely - is fun, let the kids watch, too - is exciting to see melty chocolate chips - lol! and you can use this technique for any chocolate Cake, or Chocolate Brownies - anything you might like with a nice chocolate topping : )

Pop the whole thing in the fridge to cool - and that's where it will live 'til it's all gone! : )


See how easy? And fun, too! lol! ; )


I waited about 15 minutes-ish, to take it out the fridge, to let the chocolate set, before I slid the Parchment Paper off the cookie tray, and cut into squares : )

I made fairly large squares, for me (with other treats, I make them smaller, get 80 or 90 per tray, but for these Peanut Butter Squares, I cut 7 across and 10 down - so, 70 squares - not a bad haul, right? lol!

You'll know what size of square is just right for you!

They taste like little Reese's Peanut Butter Squares - they're light, they're lovely, and they're crazy easy to make - enjoy! : )

Your Little Baking Friend, Ailsa!! Enjoy! xoxo!! : )
