A delightful no-bake cheesecake that captures the essence of summer with its creamy texture and bright orange flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (3 ounce) box orange jello
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 2 cups Graham Cracker crumbs (about 14 sheets)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • Pinch salt
  • 2 (8 ounce) blocks cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar, divided
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Zest of 1 orange, optional

Instructions

  1. Combine the orange jello powder with the boiling water in a heat-proof bowl and whisk until fully dissolved. Let it cool for about 30 minutes.
  2. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  3. Mix the Graham Cracker crumbs, melted butter, and salt until combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of the pan. Place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Beat the softened cream cheese and 1 cup of powdered sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Set aside.
  5. Whip the heavy cream with the remaining 1/2 cup powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and optional orange zest until stiff peaks form. Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until combined.
  6. Fold the remaining whipped cream into the cooled jello mixture.
  7. Alternate spooning the cream cheese and jello mixtures into the prepared crust, creating layers. Use a butter knife to gently swirl the two together.
  8. Cover and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 6 hours or overnight until completely set.

Notes

Serve with fresh fruit, granola, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for added texture and flavor.
