No-Bake Raspberry Cheesecake Ingredients

How To Make No Bake Raspberry Cheesecake
To make the no-bake cheesecake filling, let the light cream cheese soften. Then, add the light cream cheese, 0-fat Greek yogurt, vanilla, lemon juice, lemon zest, and sugar to a large bowl.
After that, use a hand-held mixer or whisk to combine the ingredients until smooth.
Next, wash and dry the raspberries. In a separate bowl, combine the raspberries, sugar, and a pinch of lemon zest. Gently mash the raspberries.
After that, place the graham crackers in a ziplock bag and seal it. Then, crush the graham crackers. You can use a rolling pin or the bottom of a measuring cup to crush them.
To assemble the cheesecake, add a layer of crushed graham crackers, cheesecake filling, and raspberries. Repeat these steps to layer the jars and equally fill all of them. We love to use le parfait jars.
Place the cheesecake jars in the refrigerator to chill and enjoy!
The Layers In Raspberry Cheesecake Jars
These no-bake raspberry cheesecake jars are filled with delicious layers of crispy graham crackers, cheesecake filling, and fresh raspberries. They are layered multiple times until you get to the top of the jar. This makes for an even distribution of ingredients. Also, this way you will get all of the flavors in every bite and in each individual cheesecake jar!

Cheesecake Jars With Other Fruit
You can use other fruit in these no-bake cheesecake jars. We love the flavor of raspberries but feel free to substitute them for strawberries, blueberries, peaches, or nectarines.

Could you use cream cheese flavor pudding mix instead of the light cream cheese? How much?
Hi Donna, yes absolutely that would work! I would start with 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese flavor pudding mix and taste it and if you need to add more go from there. I hope you enjoy let me know how it goes!
