    What are Easter egg cheesecakes?

    Cheesecake is one of those amazing desserts that just knows how to combine tangy and sweet with decadent. I'm thinking this cheesecake may be a new Easter favorite! We just love the no bake method and in addition to this recipe we've also made a classic no bake cheesecake, Cheesecake Factory Oreo cheesecake, and strawberry cheesecake.

    • No Bake Dairy Free Cheesecake for Easter
    A close-up of a spoonful of Easter egg cheesecake, showing the creamy texture, crushed chocolate eggs, and a buttery graham cracker crust. In the blurred background, three small bowls of the cheesecake sit on a gray cloth, garnished with more chocolate eggs and surrounded by scattered crumbs and candy pieces.

    Ingredients

    The ingredient list only requires a few ingredients. Just 5 ingredients to be exact!

    • Crushed Graham Crackers
    • Melted Butter
    • Cream Cheese
    • Powdered Sugar
    • Cream
    • Chocolate Cadbury Eggs (if dairy is tolerated), Dairy Free Chocolate Eggs

    Substitutions

    Everyone can enjoy this recipe! Here are some ideas for dietary preferences and needs:

    • Gluten free: To make gluten free easy cheesecakes, you will want to substitute gluten free graham crackers.
    • Dairy free: For a dairy free version, substitute dairy free butter and dairy free cream cheese. You will also want to use a dairy free cream.
    • Vegan: For this recipe to be vegan you will want to use plant based cream cheese and butter as well as plant based cream.

    Instructions

    You will need a little more than half an hour to make this recipe, but 90% of the prep time goes to refrigeration. It was a very simple recipe to prep and then throw in the refrigerator and go about my activities and then come back. And refrigeration times don't need to be exact. If you're running late, it's okay that it stays in the refrigerator a little longer.

    Storage

    The cheesecake stores nicely in the refrigerator covered for a couple of days. I do not recommend freezing.

    Serving

A fresh lime wedge is perched on the rim of the jar, while two additional limes, one whole and one sliced in half, rest nearby on the table. The background features a weathered wood texture, adding to the casual, homemade aesthetic.

A silver fork lies across the omelet. To the left of the plate is a folded white cloth napkin. In the upper right corner, a wooden cutting board holds half of a sliced avocado, a small pile of orange powder (possibly paprika), and a small pile of black peppercorns. A white bowl of red salsa is also on the cutting board. The scene is set on a light-colored marble countertop.
