I don’t know about anywhere else, but this week it is hot Hot HOT here in Austin, Texas. We’re talking triple digits as far as the eye can see. This means that my oven (and sometimes even my stove) are on lockdown. This means almost nothing is baked. The oven isn’t turned on for any reason.

That leads us into no heat and no bake recipes for the majority of our meals, snacks, and desserts. That’s where this Skinny No Bake Cheesecake. I’ve made a traditional style of cheese cake. I’ve made a dip version. I’ve even made one in the instant pot. Now? It’s time for a no bake cheesecake!

This no bake cheese cake is made from scratch with just a handful of ingredients. That’s right! No box here. And it still only takes a few minutes to put together. The hardest part about making this no bake cheesecake is having to wait the 4 hours for it to chill and set in the fridge.

Seriously. It’s a true test of will power.

I lightened this cheesecake up by using a reduced fat cheese cake and a natural sweetener instead of so much sugar. The end result is a guilt free dessert that anyone will enjoy.

I topped my cheesecake with a lightened up cherry pie filling, but you can use any cheesecake topper that appeals to you. Fresh fruit, another flavor of pie filling, chocolate, etc. The sky is the limit!
