What's the Difference Between No-Bake Cheesecake or Baked Cheesecake?

No-bake cheesecake is the perfect dessert for when you don’t want to turn on the oven or wait for a baked cheesecake to cool. It's made with cream cheese and other ingredients that are combined and then chilled until set.

No-bake Strawberry Cheesecake is especially yummy because it features both a creamy cheesecake filling, as well as a delicious strawberry topping.

On the other hand, baked Strawberry Cheesecake is made with eggs which gives it a fluffier texture and richer flavor. Both types of Strawberry Cheesecakes can be enjoyed cold or at room temperature but they will have slightly different tastes and textures.

How to Make No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake

Make the crust:

Place the graham crackers in a food processor and process them until you get crumbs.

Place the crumbs in a big bowl and combine them with the sugar and previously melted butter. Stir with a spoon until you get a wet mixture. You can add a few drops of milk but that is totally optional. 

When the ingredients are combined pour them in a 10 inches diameter cheesecake mold and place the mold in the fridge to set.

Make the filling:

Mix the whipping topping in a medium bowl, using a hand mixer. 

Over a chopping board chop the strawberries in small pieces.

In another bowl mix the cream cheese until soft. Add the confectioners sugar and vanilla and continue mixing.

Add the previously whipped topping, strawberry jello and chopped strawberries.

Pour the mixture in the mold over the first layer and leave it in the fridge for about 1 hour.

When the cake is ready, decorate with some chopped strawberries and whipped topping.
