Why Strawberry Cheesecake Is Best as a No Bake

Fresh strawberries (and peaches) are one of my favorite parts of summer.  Berries are my go-to snack year round but even more so in the summer when they’re in season and fresh & ripe.

When I have dessert it’s most often cheesecake (chocolate is my second choice).  I love a good rich easy cheesecake recipe and this definitely fits the bill!  To make it even better, this recipe is completely no bake and delicious (I think I’ve made it about a million times).

I’ve made both baked strawberry cheesecake and strawberry cheesecake cupcakes but this is even easier because no oven is required. Any recipe that doesn’t require baking yet can produce such a rich flavorful dessert is a double thumbs up in my book.  Since the strawberries aren’t baked, you can taste the fresh and juicy flavor of summer.

How to Make Glaze for Strawberries

Once you learn how to make a glaze for fresh strawberries, you’ll not only put it on cheesecake, you’ll add it to cakes and puddings too!

Glazed strawberries are versatile (and you can add other berries into this mixture if you’d like) and they’re perfect to top trifles, parfaits and on top of my Strawberries & Cream Pie.  I love the sweetness of a sauce or glaze but I also enjoy being able to taste the fresh flavor of summer strawberries in this dessert.

Not only that but adding in the glaze makes this dessert SO pretty, the berries just glisten and shine!

If you’re looking for the perfect make-ahead no bake dessert, look no further!  This Strawberry Cheesecake Pie is simply delicious and pretty much everyone LOVES it!
