A Cheesecake Cake is creamy, no-bake, and perfect for make-ahead desserts.
🍰 Cheesecake Icebox Cake (No-Bake)
Ingredients (8–10 servings)
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream

- Optional toppings: fresh berries, cherry pie filling, chocolate drizzle, caramel sauce
Instructions
- Whip the cream

- Make cheesecake layer
- In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
- Gently fold in the whipped cream until light and fluffy.
- Assemble the cake
- In an 8×8 or 9×13 dish, spread a thin layer of cheesecake mixture.
- Add a single layer of graham crackers (break to fit).
- Spread cheesecake mixture over crackers.
- Repeat layers, ending with cheesecake on top.
- Chill
- Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.

🔥 Flavor Variations
- Strawberry Cheesecake: Add sliced strawberries between layers
- Chocolate Cheesecake: Use chocolate graham crackers + chocolate drizzle
- Lemon Cheesecake: Add 2 tbsp lemon juice + zest to the cream mixture
- Peanut Butter Cheesecake: Swirl in ½ cup peanut butter
💡 Tips
- The longer it chills, the softer the graham crackers get (cake-like texture).
- Keeps well in the fridge for 3 days.
- Perfect for potlucks, BBQs, and holidays.
If you want, I can give you a church-potluck version (extra sturdy for transport) or a mini individual icebox cake cups version.
