NO BAKE ORANGE CREAMSICLE CHEESECAKE

I love making no bake cheesecakes. They are so simple to make and always tastes so delicious. During the summer months, I am one who does not like to turn on my oven. So no bake desserts are always best. No need to heat up the house or myself, ha ha. Light and fruity desserts are always great when warm weather hits. I serve them when we have our summer BBQ’s. If you need a great summer dessert for a potluck, picnic, or BBQ, you will want to make this. Trust me…. everyone will LOVE it!

This No Bake Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake will be made MANY of times in my kitchen this spring and summer. As you can see from the pictures, it looks light and dreamy and so impressive, sort of like a Creamsicle Bar. Since my family loves Creamsicle bars, I knew they would enjoy this amazing dessert.

I love my Nilla Pie Crust recipe. I use it more often than a graham cracker crust now because it adds such a great flavor to pies. Since a Creamsicle has a hint of vanilla flavoring, I decided on a Nilla crust for this cheesecake. I couldn’t have chose a better crust.

If you prefer a graham cracker crust, I am sure the cheesecake would taste wonderful too! This cheesecake looks so decadent. I showed it off quite a few times before I snapped these pictures for the blog. Everyone that I showed it to thought it was SO PRETTY! I had it in the fridge for a day to set and my kiddos kept asking how long before they could dig in.

You will want to add some Nilla Wafers, cream cheese, heavy cream, orange Jell-o, and an orange to your shopping list to make this No Bake Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake. The recipe is quite simple to make with just a few dirty dishes to clean up when finished.
