So much so that I had it served at my wedding reception. My love for it started the first time I tasted this No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake recipe when I was in Middle School.

The proportions as is are how my mom made it. I grew up loving the ratio of filling to crust being thinner. Others have commented that they have had a hard time getting the filling to cover the entire cheesecake. I always only use one can of cherry pie filling. I use a spoon to scoop out the cherries and put them down first, spaced equally apart. Then I go back and carefully fill in the white parts that are still showing with the syrup-stuff left in the can.<\/h6>\n<p>My mom was a middle school Home Economics Teacher. One of the recipes she always had her 8th-grade Home Ec class make was this No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake. The weird thing is that she never made any kind of cheesecake at home. In fact, I never tasted this recipe until I was an 8th grader in her Home Ec class.<\/p>\n<h4>More Delicious Cream Cheese Desserts<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Chocolate Lasagna with Shortbread Crust<\/li>\n<li>Easy Cheesecake Squares with Berry Sauce<\/li>\n<li>Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Bars<\/li>\n<li>Oreo Cheesecake Bites<\/li>\n<li>Pineapple Dream Dessert<\/li>\n<li>Easy Chocolate Cream Cheese Truffles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-slot-rendered-content=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10506 size-full aligncenter pib-hover-img\" src=\"https:\/\/reallifedinner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/No-Bake-Cherry-Cheesecake-4.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reallifedinner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/No-Bake-Cherry-Cheesecake-4.jpg 700w, https:\/\/reallifedinner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/No-Bake-Cherry-Cheesecake-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reallifedinner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/No-Bake-Cherry-Cheesecake-4-324x216.jpg 324w, https:\/\/reallifedinner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/No-Bake-Cherry-Cheesecake-4-174x117.jpg 174w, https:\/\/reallifedinner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/No-Bake-Cherry-Cheesecake-4-212x142.jpg 212w, https:\/\/reallifedinner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/No-Bake-Cherry-Cheesecake-4-373x248.jpg 373w\" alt=\"A photo of No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake.

See, you knew there was a reason you decided to have kids. With a big family like mine (9 of us altogether, counting my parents) making cheesecake in a\u00a09\u00d713 pan\u00a0was a must, if you hoped to get a piece all to yourself. If you have a smaller family, you can make this recipe using two small pie tins, and then share one with a friend.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mv-ad-box\" data-slotid=\"content_5_btf\">\n<div class=\"mv-rail-frame-250\" data-slotid=\"content_5_btf\">\n<div class=\"mv-rail-slide-250\" data-slotid=\"content_5_btf\">\n<div class=\"mv-rail-sticky-250\" data-slotid=\"content_5_btf\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Making cheesecake in a\u00a09\u00d713 pan\u00a0is also perfect for taking it to potlucks or any place there will be a hungry crowd.<\/p>\n<p>One thing people mention when they eat this cheesecake is how they love that it isn\u2019t overly \u201ccheesy\u201d and the filling is so light and smooth.
