No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake is a dreamy dessert with layers of cheesecake, spiced pumpkin and whipped topping all nestled in a graham crust. It is so creamy and delicious, it will become your new fall dessert go to!
Pumpkin Cheesecake is one of my fall favorites, it’s rich and creamy and loaded with so much flavor! When the oven is full with turkey and stuffing, I love to make this easy no bake cheesecake!
Cheesecake + Pumpkin Pie
Two of my absolute favorite things are cheesecake and pumpkin pie, so why not combine them? I can honestly tell you that these two flavours together in one bite is heavenly!
While I’ve been making a crazy good Easy Pumpkin Cheesecake for years, this layered pumpkin cheesecake recipe is even easier! It requires no baking and just minutes of prep making it as quick as it is pretty! Everyone will think you spent hours preparing it (only you will know how simple it was to make)!
I like to start with a pre-made graham crust but you can certainly make your own if you prefer (I love this crust recipe)! The cream cheese and pumpkin layers easy and quick to prepare needing little more than a bowl and a mixer.
Easy No Bake Recipe
The one key ingredient to my pumpkin pie layer is pumpkin pie spice which you can buy or even make at home. It has just the right balance of the spices you would expect in pumpkin pie; nutmeg, cloves, ginger, cinnamon and allspice. I have added additional cinnamon because I simply love the flavor!
This recipe is just in time for fall dinner parties or even for your special Thanksgiving dinner! If you’re going to be serving a crowd, I would recommend doubling the recipe to and putting it in a 9×13 pan and making it into no bake pumpkin cheesecake bars. Since this no bake cheesecake is placed in a graham crust, you’ll need to make your own if using a 9×13 pan.
No worries though, it’s super simple and easy! To make a quick and easy 9×13 Graham Crust combine 3 cups graham wafer crumbs, 3/4 cup white sugar and 1/2 cup melted butter in the bottom of a 9×13 pan. Press flat and bake for 15 minutes.Cool completely before filling.
A Yummy Fall Dessert
If you’re looking for the perfect dessert to make this fall, or anytime of the year, you’ll definitely love this one! The creaminess of cheesecake combined with wholesome pumpkin pie filling all covered with a layer of whipped topping will make your family and friends smile every time!

amazing
gonna make this for Christmas…most delicious looking dessert ever
This is very tasty. I didn’t have cool whip, so I made up some of that powdered whipped topping (I think it’s called Dream Whip or something?) and it worked great. Also did mine in an 8″ square pan and served it like a cake instead of a pie. I like the caramelized flavour of a baked graham wafer crust, so I did bake mine but it probably would have been good without as well. Really nice flavour overall and not too sweet, so I would really recommend it. Thank you for this great recipe!
Hi – the instant pudding mixes are 1.5 oz each. So I should use more than 2 boxes?
You will want to use 6.8 ounces of instant pudding mix in the end. So however many boxes you need to achieve that amount.
So I used 6.8 ounces and the mixture was completely inedible and so thick I couldn’t even finish mixing it. I had to run back out to the store to remake the mixture and just used 2 boxes (1.5 ounces each) and it was perfect. So I think you mean 3.4oz total together.
6.8oz total is correct, that part of the mixture is very thick (and is not intended to be eaten just like that). This helps set the rest of the dessert when combined.
Most often I’ve seen the 1.5oz boxes as the sugar free version but they set the same amount of milk.
Can you use french vanilla instead of vanilla pudding also if using a 10″ crust should you double the recipe to fill the crust
Instant French vanilla can be used in place of vanilla. I haven’t made this in a 10-inch crust but I don’t think you will need to double it. With a single recipe in a 10-inch crust, it may be a thinner layer.
Yummy
This is the same recipe I have used before.
looks yummy n going to try it out.
Thank you for this Pumpkin Cheesecake recipe! I did make some tweaks to replace some sugar with monk fruit sweetener. It was amazing!
Folks, you need to try it. :)
Ms Edward’s, did you do a 1:1 ratio with the monk fruit?
