The Ultimate No-Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake!

Peanut Butter Cheesecake: A No-Bake Delight

Cheesecake should be its own food group. There, I said it. I know I shouldn’t play favorites, but cheesecakes are undoubtedly my top dessert pick. And when it’s jazzed up with peanut butter? Simply divine! If you’re anything like me and have a soft spot for peanut butter-infused treats (like cookies and brownies), you’re in for a treat with this peanut butter cheesecake recipe!

Why this recipe will become your favorite

– This peanut butter cheesecake recipe is simple, elegant, and an absolute must for peanut butter aficionados. If the sound of chocolate and peanut butter makes your heart race, (remember those delightful pies or cookies?) then this cheesecake is definitely for you!
– It’s a no-bake recipe. That’s right! No oven needed. The only challenge? Waiting for it to set.
– Cleanup is a breeze. Everything mixes up in one bowl. So, you get more time to enjoy the dessert and less cleaning!
– Its texture? Unparalleled! Rich, creamy, and that chocolate crust? C’est magnifique!
– Not a crust fan? Go crustless. Focus on the filling, which, by the way, is reminiscent of a velvety peanut butter mousse!

Ingredients you’ll need:

– A crust of your choice. Homemade crust, be it chocolate or plain flavored, is my personal choice. A simple 2-ingredient crust with Oreo cookies and melted butter always hits the spot.
– Cream cheese: Ensure it’s at room temperature and full fat. If you’re dairy-free, no worries! Dairy-free cream cheese has your back.
– Confectioners’ sugar: Not just for sweetness, but also to keep the filling oh-so-smooth.
– Vanilla Extract: Because who doesn’t love a hint of vanilla?
– Peanut Butter: Go for the smooth and creamy variety. Save the crunchy one for your sandwiches!
– Heavy cream, also known as double cream in some parts.

– Chocolate frosting. Optional, but trust me, it takes the cheesecake up a notch.
